Nopphitam ( _th. นบพิตำ) is a district ("Amphoe") of Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, southern Thailand.

History

The district was created on April 1 1995 by splitting off the four western "tambon" from Tha Sala district [cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=112|issue=Special 9 ง|pages=53|title=ประกาศกระทรวงมหาดไทย เรื่อง แบ่งเขตท้องที่อำเภอท่าศาลา จังหวัดนครศรีธรรมราช ตั้งเป็นกิ่งอำเภอนบพิตำ|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2538/E/009/53.PDF|date=March 22 2007|language=Thai] .

Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts [cite news|url=http://www.manager.co.th/Politics/ViewNews.aspx?NewsID=9500000055625|publisher=Manager Online|title=แถลงผลการประชุม ครม. ประจำวันที่ 15 พ.ค. 2550|language=Thai] . With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official [cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=124|issue=46 ก|pages=14–21|title=พระราชกฤษฎีกาตั้งอำเภอฆ้องชัย...และอำเภอเหล่าเสือโก้ก พ.ศ. ๒๕๕๐|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2550/A/046/14.PDF|date=August 24 2007|language=Thai] .
