Thailand Increases Minimum Wage Across All Provinces

The minimum wage rates have remained the same as the previous announcement, which is from THB337 to THB400, depending on the province. Previously, the minimum wage rate of THB400 applies only to 4 provinces and 1 district.

In summary, the minimum wage rate of THB400 has additionally extended to 5 provinces, 1 district and 2 types of business.
