'''Thap Phut''' ({{langx|th|ทับปุด}}, {{IPA|th|tʰáp pùt|pron}}) is a district (''[[amphoe]]'') in [[Phang Nga province]] in the south of [[Thailand]].

==History==
In 1785 [[Tatmadaw|Burmese troops]] attacked ''[[Mueang]]'' Thalang. The [[inhabitants]] escaped from [[Thalang district|Thalang]] to the area of modern-day Thap Put. They built shelters that in the [[southern Thai language]] are called ''thap''. The shelters were covered by tree leaves which are called ''put''.

The district was established in 1897 as one of the original districts of Phang Nga Province.

==Geography==
Neighboring districts are (from the west clockwise): [[Mueang Phang Nga district|Mueang Phang Nga]] of Phang Nga; [[Phanom district|Phanom]] of [[Surat Thani province]]; and [[Plai Phraya district|Plai Phraya]] and [[Ao Luek district|Ao Luek]] of [[Krabi province]]. To the south is [[Phang Nga Bay]].

== Administration ==
The district is divided into six sub-districts ([[tambon]]s), which are further subdivided into 38 villages (''[[muban]]s''). Thap Phut itself has township (''[[thesaban tambon]]'') status. There are five tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
