The Supreme Court of Thailand (Thai: ศาลฎีกา, romanizedSan Dika), located in Bangkok, Thailand, is the highest Thai court of justice, covering criminal and civil cases of the entire country. Operating separately from the Administrative Court and the Constitutional Court, the judgment from the Supreme Court is considered as final. Neither plaintiff nor respondent can request for any further appeals.

A justice of the Supreme Court can be appointed from among justices of the Court of Appeals having seniority, extensive knowledge and experience.[1] The current president of the Supreme Court is Judge Chanakarn Theeravechpolkul.[2][3]
