Tha Tan is the northernmost subdistrict in Bang Krathum, bordering Wang Nam Khu of Amphoe Mueang Phitsanulok to the northwest, Amphoe Wang Thong to the northeast, Nakhon Pa Mak to the south and Bang Krathum to the southwest.
Tha Tan lies within the Nan Basin, which is part of the Chao Phraya Watershed. The Wang Thong River flows through the subdistrict.
Originally named Bang Phi (บางผี), it was renamed to Tha Tan in 1939.[1]
The subdistrict is subdivided into 11 smaller divisions called (muban), which roughly correspond to the 8 villages in Tha Tan. Tha Tan is administrated by a Tambon administrative organization (TAO). The muban in Tha Tan are enumerated as follows: [2]
