Tambons Huai Khot, Suk Ruethai and Thong Lang were separated from Ban Rai district and formed Huai Khot minor district (king amphoe) on 1 August 1984.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 3 November 1993.[2]
Neighbouring districts are (from the south clockwise) Ban Rai, Lan Sak and Nong Chang of Uthai Thani Province.
The district is divided into three sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 31 villages (mubans). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas. There are a further three tambon administrative organizations (TAO).[citation needed]
