Ou Chrov District (Khmer: ស្រុកអូរជ្រៅ) is a district (srok) in the west of Banteay Meanchey Province in north-western Cambodia. The border town of Poipet is located within the district. Poipet is the district capital and is located around 48.5 kilometres due west of the provincial capital of Sisophon by road. Ou Chrov District is one of the western-most districts of Banteay Meanchey. The district borders on Thailand and Poipet contains a popular international border crossing which is home to numerous casinos.[2]

The district is easily accessed by road from Sisophon (48 km) and Bangkok (230 km). Ou Chrov District is an average land size compared to other Banteay Meanchey districts however it has a large district population due to the border crossing and related industry. National Highway 5 which begins in Phnom Penh and ends at Poipet bisects the district running from east to west. The main road access to isolated Malai District begins from the national highway not far from Poipet town. although there is only one official border crossing in the district, numerous smaller roads in the district also run to various locations on the border.[3]
