A Thailand-focused timesheet should show each employee's working days, start and end times, work performed where relevant, pay rates, and amounts paid. Thai employers with ten or more employees must keep Thai-language wage, overtime, holiday-pay, and holiday-overtime documents with those details. The practical goal is a record that payroll can verify without rebuilding the week from chat messages, calendars, or manager memory.
Ordinary work in Thailand is capped at 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week. Work prescribed as potentially harmful to health or safety has a lower normal limit of 7 hours per day and 42 hours per week. A weekly timesheet should separate normal time, overtime on a working day, holiday work, and holiday overtime, because each category affects approval and payment differently.
A workable timesheet starts with identity, date, project or work category, start time, end time, unpaid break time, total working time, overtime category, approver, and payroll notes. For a team that bills clients, add client, project, task, billable status, and rate category. A line such as "June 12, client support, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, 1 hour break, 8 normal hours" is easier to approve than a single weekly total.
Thai payroll records also need pay amounts in the right category. Overtime on a normal working day must be paid at at least 1.5 times the employee's hourly wage rate for overtime hours worked. Holiday overtime must be paid at at least 3 times the hourly wage rate. Wages, overtime pay, holiday pay, and holiday overtime pay are paid in Thai currency unless the employee consents to another permitted method or currency.
Timesheet review in Thailand should flag overtime before payroll closes. Overtime and holiday work generally require the employee's prior consent, except for limited urgent, continuous, or emergency work allowed by the Labour Protection Act. Employees must receive at least 1 hour of rest after no more than 5 consecutive hours, with permitted shorter intervals that total at least 1 hour per day.
Employee time records and monitoring data that identify a person fall under Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act. Employers need a statutory basis for collection, use, or disclosure and must provide required privacy information to employees. Biometric clock-in data used to identify a person is sensitive personal data under the PDPA, so a fingerprint or facial clock-in system needs tighter handling than ordinary manual time entry.
A free timesheet format is enough for a one-off week, a small contractor invoice, or a quick internal reconciliation. It works best when one person enters hours, one person reviews them, and payroll only needs a short period. Keep the file clear, store payment documents for at least 2 years from the payment date, and avoid mixing normal time with overtime categories.
A managed workflow fits teams that approve time every week, bill several clients, or need a consistent payroll trail. Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let managers approve, reject, partially approve, and lock submitted time. That structure keeps Thai payroll review, client billing, and later corrections tied to the same approved record.

Thailand does not impose a universal clock-in system requirement. The Labour Protection Act does create concrete wage and overtime record obligations, especially for employers with ten or more employees. A manual, spreadsheet, or digital timesheet can support those records when it captures working days, working times, pay rates, work performed where relevant, and amounts paid.
The most important details are the date, actual working time, break time, normal hours, overtime hours, holiday work, holiday overtime, pay rate, and approval status. Normal working-day overtime is paid at at least 1.5 times the hourly wage rate, while holiday overtime is paid at at least 3 times the hourly wage rate.
A weekly total is too thin for payroll review when overtime, breaks, or holiday work appears. Thai rules refer to daily and weekly working-time limits, including 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week for ordinary work. Daily entries help reviewers see rest breaks, overtime consent, and whether hours belong in normal, overtime, holiday, or holiday-overtime categories.
A Thai timesheet should show whether the employee received at least 1 hour of rest after working no more than 5 consecutive hours. Shorter break intervals can be arranged when they total at least 1 hour per day. Recording break time separately prevents paid working time, unpaid rest, and overtime from blending into one unclear number.
Biometric clock-in data used to identify a person is sensitive personal data under Thailand's PDPA. Employers need stricter processing conditions than they need for ordinary time entries. A timesheet process should collect only necessary data, explain the collection and use to employees, and limit access to people who need the information for payroll, attendance, or compliance review.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let users submit time for manager review. Admins can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock submitted entries, which gives payroll and billing reviewers a clear approved record instead of a changing spreadsheet.
Everhour Reporting turns logged time, budgets, costs, and project data into customizable reports with columns for client, project, member, billable time, labor costs, and invoice status. Teams can review billable work separately from payroll-focused working hours while keeping both tied to the same time entries.
Use Everhour Timesheets to collect weekly hours, review exceptions, approve submitted time, and lock records before payroll or billing so Thailand time records stay organized.
