A low-profile multi-directional key switch structure is disclosed, which includes a magnetic element, a key cap for receiving at least a portion of the magnetic element therein, an elastic element centered near the key cap, and a protection pad disposed between the extension portion of the key cap and the elastic element. The key cap has an extension portion protruding outwardly. The elastic element includes a central region and a spiral structure connected with the central region. The spiral structure is extended from the central region outwardly, and the elastic element is centered near the key cap by the central region for limiting a movement of the key cap and the magnetic element to an original location of the elastic element. The protection pad covers a most portion of the spiral structure of the elastic element, and a receiving opening is disposed in a center of the protection pad for passing the magnetic element through.
