Na Yia (Thai: นาเยีย) is a district (Amphoe) in the central part of Ubon Ratchathani Province, northeastern Thailand.

History

Na Yia was separated from Det Udom district to create a minor district (King Amphoe) on May 31, 1993.[1]

Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15, 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts.[2] With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official.[3]

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Sawang Wirawong, Phibun Mangsahan, Det Udom and Warin Chamrap.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 3 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 34 villages (muban). Na Yia is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Na Yia. There are further 3 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
