The government revealed that the Student Loan Fund (SLF) has sent letters to 80,000 employer organizations to deduct salaries from 120,000 employees who are borrowers to repay their debts. This supports the continuation of educational opportunities. Borrowers are encouraged to reduce their repayment burden by restructuring their loans online.
On 22 January 2026, Ms. Airin Panrit, Deputy Spokesperson of the Prime Minister's Office, stated that the Student Loan Fund (SLF) has sent letters notifying over 80,000 employer organizations to deduct salaries of more than 120,000 employee borrowers to repay their debts starting March 2026. SLF will notify borrowers in February 2026 regarding salary deductions. This action complies with the Student Loan Fund Act B.E. 2560 (2017) and its second amendment in B.E. 2566 (2023). All borrowers currently repaying loans—whether under annual or monthly contracts or loan restructuring agreements—are required to have their employers deduct from their salaries.
SLF has organized online seminars for employers who received notification letters to prepare and understand their responsibilities, including the correct use of the loan repayment system via the Revenue Department’s e-PaySLF platform. Employers are invited to register for these meetings at www.studentloan.or.th by choosing a convenient date and time or by scanning the QR code below. For further inquiries, they can contact the official SLF employer account on Line.
Currently, 1,418,640 borrowers have salary deductions in place. Borrowers can easily restructure their loans online conveniently and quickly, reducing travel costs, at www.studentloan.or.th. Identity verification and electronic signatures can be completed via the Paotang and ThaID applications. This initiative allows borrowers to resume repayments, reduces the number of cases that may require legal or enforcement proceedings, and enables SLF to recycle repaid funds to continuously provide educational opportunities for future generations.
