Flood victims in Bangkok are queuing from the night before at district offices, and quotas (1,200 tickets at Sai Mai, 600 places at Lat Krabang) filled by early morning. Officials are adding staff and accepting documents from late arrivals. Payments follow eligibility from provincial authorities and Bangkok. Government plans 5,000 or 9,000 baht per household, plus a national disaster insurance scheme covering October 2026 to October 2027. If your business or staff were hit, check the Thang Rath app and prepare photos and documents before going in person.
