The Student Loan Fund (SLF) is calling on over 5,200 employers to begin implementing salary deductions for loan repayment through the e-PaySLF system administered by the Thai Revenue Department, effective May 2025. Employers can register for seminars on the SLF website to learn about the system's procedures and operational details, with funds required to be submitted by June 15, 2025, and subsequently by the 15th of each month. The SLF notes that borrowers with outstanding balances should settle arrears independently before entering the automatic deduction process, and employers are encouraged to register for training sessions available at www.studentloan.or.th or contact the official SLF employer LINE account for questions. The organization expressed appreciation for employer cooperation, noting that salary deductions not only help borrowers maintain consistent repayment but also preserve the revolving education fund to create sustainable educational opportunities for future generations of students.
