Non Suwan (Thai: โนนสุวรรณ, pronounced [nōːn sù(ʔ).wān]) is a district (amphoe) in the western part of Buriram Province, northeastern Thailand.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Nong Ki, Nang Rong, Pakham of Buriram Province and Soeng Sang of Nakhon Ratchasima Province.
The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 1 April 1991, when four tambon were split off from Nang Rong district. It was upgraded to a full district on 8 September 1995.
The district is divided into four sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 56 villages (muban). Non Suwan is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Non Suwan and Krok Kaeo. There are also four tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
