Tha Tan (Thai: ท่าตาล) is a sub-district (tambon) in the Bang Krathum District of Phitsanulok Province, Thailand.
Tha Tan is the northernmost sub-district in Bang Krathum, bordering Wang Nam Khu of Amphoe Mueang Phitsanulok to the north-west, Amphoe Wang Thong to the north-east, Nakhon Pa Mak to the south and Bang Krathum to the south-west.
