Dan Makham Tia (Thai: ด่านมะขามเตี้ย) is a district (Amphoe) in the southern part of Kanchanaburi Province, central Thailand.
The area of Dan Makham Tia was a village more than 200 years. It was a border village of Mueang Kanchanaburi to Burma.
In the area had a short Makham tree (Tamarindus indica), so people called the village Ban Nong Makham Tia. Later was changed to be Dan Makham Tia.
The district was created in the 1990s by splitting of three tambon of Mueang Kanchanaburi district.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Mueang Kanchanaburi, Tha Muang of Kanchanaburi Province, Chom Bueng and Suan Phueng of Ratchaburi Province.
The important water resource is the Khwae Noi and Phachi River.
The district is subdivided into 4 communes (tambon). Dan Makham Tia is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of the tambon Dan Makham Tia.
