In Thailand, civil servants are required to wear a uniform on Mondays, the first day of each working week. It is a formal attire and the rest of the week the uniform is optional and usually reserved for special occasions. The civil service uniform, known as chut kha radjakaan, is beige in colour, with distinctive features and insignia, that denote the individual's rank.

This is shown on their epaulettes and in ribbon racks displayed in a horizontal row above the left breast pocket, whilst over the right breast pocket it has a black nameplate displaying in Thai script the engraved name of the individual. Above this, is a metal insignia that varies based on the government agency the individual works for within the civil service.

The design of the collar pins also varies according to the government agency, ministry, or department to which the civil servant belongs, whilst the belt has a golden buckle with a Garuda, since 1911 the nation's royal symbol. Teachers, known in Thai as ajaan or kruh, are also civil servants and their uniform, more specifically referred to as chut kha radjakaan kruh, also displays their academic degree.
