Lam Luk Ka (Thai: ลำลูกกา; IPA: [lām lûːk kāː]) is a district (Amphoe) of Pathum Thani Province, central Thailand.

The name Lam Luk Ka originates from a fertile pond in the district named Bueng Lam Luk Ka. When the government created the district Lam Luk Ka in 1904, they cut the word Bueng off.

The district is located in a part of Thung Luang same as the districts Thanyaburi and Khlong Luang. Khlong Rangsit is the main water resource of the district.

The district is subdivided into 8 subdistricts (tambon). There are 3 town municipalities (thesaban mueang) – Khu Khot, Lam Sam Kaeo and Lat Sawai – and 2 subdistrict municipalities (thesaban tambon) – Lam Luk Ka and Lam Sai. There are 6 subdistrict administrative organizations (SAO).
