Chaloem Phra Kiat (Thai: เฉลิมพระเกียรติ) is a district (Amphoe) in the northern part of Saraburi Province, central Thailand.
Tambon Huay Bong, Ban Keng, Khao Din Phatthana, Phu Khae and Na Phralan were separated from Amphoe Mueang Saraburi to create the new district. The new district was officially erected on December 5th 1996, as one of five districts named Chaloem Phra Kiat created to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ascencion to throne of King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX). This area was selected because there is a royal project located within, a new agricultural theory tested at Wat Mongkhon Chaiphatthana by the Chaiphatthana foundation.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Phattana Nikhom of Lopburi Province, Kaeng Khoi, Mueang Saraburi, Sao Hai and Phra Phutthabat of Saraburi Province.
The district is subdivided into 6 communes (tambon), which are further subdivided into 51 villages (muban). Na Phra Lan has township (thesaban tambon) status and covers parts of the same-named tambon. Each of the 6 tambon is administrated by a Tambon Administrative Organization.
