Nong Hi (Thai: หนองฮี) is a district (amphoe) of Roi Et Province, Thailand.

Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise) Phon Sai, Suwannaphum and Phanom Phrai of Roi Et Province, and Sila Lat of Sisaket Province.

The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 1 April 1995, when the three tambon Nong Hi, Sao Hae, and Duk Ueng were split off from Phanom Phrai.

The Thai government on 15 May 2007, upgraded all 81 minor districts to full districts. With publication in the Royal Gazette on 24 August, the upgrade became official.

The district is divided into four sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 54 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and four tambon administrative organization (TAO).
