Na Yia (Thai: นาเยีย) is a district (Amphoe) in the central part of Ubon Ratchathani Province, northeastern Thailand.
Na Yia was separated from Det Udom district to create a minor district (King Amphoe) on May 31, 1993.
Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15, 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts. With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Sawang Wirawong, Phibun Mangsahan, Det Udom and Warin Chamrap.
The district is subdivided into 3 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 34 villages (muban). Na Yia is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Na Yia. There are further 3 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
