Tambon Sap Samo Thot was created by separating it from Tambon Ban Phot, Nong Phai district in 1966. On May 15, 1975 tambon Sap Samo Thot together with tambon Sap Mai Daeng, Nong Chaeng und Kan Chu were split from Nong Phai district and created the minor district (King Amphoe) Bueng Sam Phan[1]. It was named Bueng Sam Phan (Sam Phan pond) after the most important water resource of the district.
The minor district was officially upgraded to a full district on March 25, 1979[2].
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Chon Daen and Nong Phai of Phetchabun Province, Phakdi Chumphon of Chaiyaphum Province, Wichian Buri of Phetchabun again, and Phaisali and Nong Bua of Nakhon Sawan Province.
The district is subdivided into 9 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 117 villages (muban). Sap Samo Thot is a township (thesaban tambon) and covers parts of the tambon Sap Samo Thot and Bueng Sam Phan. There are further 9 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
