Local Government Exam Candidates Granted Score Review Period
The Ministry of Interior has established centers for local government exam candidates to verify their scores following the release of recent results.
On August 13, 2026, Worasit Liangprasert, Deputy Minister of Interior, announced that the Department of Local Administration (DLA) has opened a dedicated center to handle requests from exam candidates who did not appear on the list of successful applicants. This initiative allows individuals to verify their examination scores directly through official channels.
Candidates may submit their requests between August 13 and August 31, 2026, during official working hours (08:30 to 16:30). To ensure accessibility, the Ministry has provided two primary methods for submission: visiting the Suwatthana Building (1st floor) at the DLA headquarters in Bangkok, or submitting requests at any Provincial Local Administration Office across the country. This decentralized approach is intended to save candidates from having to travel to the capital.
For residents and those involved in the local administrative sector, this process underscores the government's commitment to transparency in public recruitment. While this measure provides a mechanism for score verification, it remains to be seen how the DLA will address potential discrepancies identified during this review period. Candidates are encouraged to utilize these official channels to ensure their inquiries are processed correctly. As reported by Khaosod Online, the Ministry emphasizes that all procedures must adhere to principles of accuracy and accountability.
