Khok Sung (Thai: โคกสูง, pronounced [kʰôːk sǔːŋ]) is a district (amphoe) in the eastern part of Sa Kaeo Province, eastern Thailand.
Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise) Aranyaprathet, Watthana Nakhon and Ta Phraya of Sa Kaeo Province, and to the east, Banteay Meanchey of Cambodia.
The minor district (king amphoe) was established 15 July 1996 with area split from Ta Phraya district.
Following a decision of the Thai government on 15 May 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts. With its publication in the Royal Gazette on 24 August 2007, the upgrade became official.
The district is divided into four sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 38 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and further four tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
