Pho Sai (Thai: โพธิ์ไทร) is a district (Amphoe) in the northeastern part of Ubon Ratchathani Province, northeastern Thailand.
A group of people from Khemarat district moved to Ban Klang and Ban Nong Khun in 1820. They named their new town Ban Pho Sai.
Pho and Sai trees are kinds of Ficus species that grow in Wat Si Bunrueang.
Neighboring districts are (from the southeast clockwise) Si Mueang Mai, Trakan Phuet Phon, Kut Khaopun, Khemarat and Na Tan. To the northeast across the Mekong river are the Laotian provinces of Salavan.
The district is subdivided into 6 communes (tambon), which are further subdivided into 68 villages (muban). Pho Sai is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Pho Sai. There are further 6 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
