According to a report by Matichon Online on October 26, 2026, the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) and the Government Savings Bank have initiated the distribution of flood relief payments. A total of 312 million baht is being transferred to 45,512 households impacted by recent flooding.
The relief funds cover residents across five provinces and the Bangkok Metropolitan area. The transfer process began at 11:00 AM on the day of the announcement.

Residents are advised to rely on official government channels for updates regarding their specific status and to avoid unofficial links or requests for personal information related to these payments.
