Doem Bang Nang Buat (Thai: เดิมบางนางบวช) is a district (Amphoe) in the northern part of Suphanburi Province, central Thailand.
In the past, Nang Buat district covered a large area. Prince Damrong Rajanubhab and the governor of Suphanburi agreed to separate the northernmost part and then created a new district named Doem Bang on May 16th, 1911. They also added 2 tambons of Hankha district, Chainat Province and 2 tambons of Bang Rachan district, Sing Buri Province. In 1914 the government changed the district name of Nang Buat district to Sam Chuk, they decided to put the word Nang Buat after Doem Bang, so since that year the district is named Doem Bang Nang Buat.
The present district office is located on Chainat-Suphanburi Road, Tambon Khao Phra since 1995.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Noen Kham, Hankha and Sankhaburi of Chainat Province, Bang Rachan and Khai Bang Rachan of Sing Buri Province, Sawaeng Ha of Ang Thong Province, and Sam Chuk, Nong Ya Sai and Dan Chang of Suphanburi Province.
The main water resource of Doem Bang Nang Buat is the Tha Chin river or Suphan river.
The district is subdivided into 14 communes (tambon). There are three townships (thesaban tambon) within the district - Khao Phra covers parts of the tambon Khao Phra and Doem Bang, Nangbuat covers parts of tambon Nangbuat, and Bo Kru covers parts of tambon Bo Kru.
