The Finance Ministry will submit the 2026 State Welfare Card screening results to the cabinet on 29 Sep 2026. Of 18.82 million registrants, 11.22 million (59.63%) passed and 7.6 million failed. The main reasons for failing were owning a car (3.0 million), a home loan above 100,000 baht (2.49 million), and annual income above 100,000 baht (1.61 million). Over 6.9 million passers are aged 51 and over. For a small business, this mainly matters if your customers or staff are welfare-eligible.
