In 2020, the club became a professional football club and competed in the Thai League 4. However, the Football Association of Thailand merged the Thai League 3 and Thai League 4. As a result of this incident, all teams in Thai League 4 were promoted to Thai League 3. The club competed in the Thai League 3 for the 2020–21 season. In late December 2020, the Coronavirus disease 2019 or also known as COVID-19 had spread again in Thailand, the FA Thailand must abruptly end the regional stage of the Thai League 3.[4] The club has finished the eleventh place of the Western region.

In addition, in the 2021–22 Thai FA Cup Kanjanapat was defeated 1–6 by Muang Loei United in the qualification round, causing them to be eliminated.[8] In the 2021–22 Thai League Cup Kanjanapat was defeated 0–1 by Phitsanulok in the qualification play-off round, causing them to be eliminated too.[9]

In 2022, Kanjanapat competed in the Thai League 3 for the 2022–23 season. It is their 3rd season in the professional league. The club started the season with a 4–0 away win over Thawi Watthana Samut Sakhon United[10] and they ended the season with a 5–1 home win over Thawi Watthana Samut Sakhon United.[11] The club has finished 10th place in the league of the Western region.
