Khai Bang Rachan (Thai: ค่ายบางระจัน; IPA: [kʰâːj bāːŋ rā.tɕān]) is a district (Amphoe) of Singburi province, central Thailand.

In 1966 the government renovated Khai Bang Rachan (Camp Bang Rachan). They agreed to establish a new district to commemorate the battle at Bang Rachan and to encourage the people of Bang Rachan. The area was thus separated from Bang Rachan district and became a minor district (King Amphoe) on February 1, 1972, then consisting of 5 subdistricts. It was officially upgraded to a full district in 1976. The sixth subdistrict Nong Krathum was created in 1980.

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Bang Rachan, Mueang Sing Buri and Tha Chang of Singburi Province, Sawaeng Ha of Ang Thong Province, and Doem Bang Nang Buat of Suphanburi Province.
