Mueang Sanam Chai Khet was a city of Ayutthaya kingdom, contemporary with neighboring Mueang Phanat Nikhom and Phanom Sarakham.
Being part of Phanom Sarakham district, on January 6 1966 the three tambon Khu Yai Mi, Tha Kradan and Tha Takiap were split off to form the minor district (King Amphoe) Sanam Chai (สนามไชย).[1] It was renamed to Sanam Chai Ket on December 14 1972,[2] and upgraded to a full district on June 28 1973.[3]
Neighboring districts are (from the west clockwise) Plaeng Yao, Phanom Sarakham of Chachoengsao Province, Si Maha Phot, Kabin Buri of Prachinburi Province, Khao Chakan of Sa Kaeo Province, Tha Takiap of Chachoengsao Province again and Ko Chan of Chonburi Province.
The district is subdivided into 4 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 64 villages (muban). Sanam Chai Khet is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Khu Yai Mi. There are further 4 Tambon administrative organizations.
