'''Plai Phraya''' ({{langx|th|ปลายพระยา}}, {{IPA|th|plāːj pʰrā.jāː|pron}}) is a district (''[[amphoe]]'') in [[Krabi province]], [[Thailand]].

==Geography==
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise): [[Phanom district|Phanom]], [[Phrasaeng district|Phrasaeng]], [[Chai Buri district|Chai Buri]] (all [[Surat Thani province]]); [[Khao Phanom district|Khao Phanom]] and [[Ao Luek district|Ao Luek]] of Krabi Province; and [[Thap Put district|Thap Put]] of [[Phang Nga province]].

[[Khlong Phraya Wildlife Sanctuary]] is on the Surat Thani Province border.

==History==
The minor district (''[[king amphoe]]'') Plai Phraya was created on 15 June 1973, when the three ''tambons'', Plai Phraya, Khao Khen, and Khao To, were split off from [[Ao Luek district]].<ref>{{cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=90|issue=67 ง|pages=1840|script-title=th:ประกาศกระทรวงมหาดไทย เรื่อง แบ่งท้องที่อำเภออ่าวลึก จังหวัดกระบี่ ตั้งเป็นกิ่งอำเภอปลายพระยา|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2516/D/067/1840.PDF|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120309160301/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2516/D/067/1840.PDF|url-status=dead|archive-date=March 9, 2012|date=June 12, 1973|language=Thai}}</ref> It was upgraded to a full district on 12 April 1977.<ref>{{cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=94|issue=31 ก|pages=326–330|script-title=th:พระราชกฤษฎีกาตั้งอำเภอปลายพระยา อำเภอห้วยเม็ก อำเภอละแม อำเภอแม่จริม อำเภอหนองกี่ อำเภอโคกปีบ อำเภอเกาะพะงัน อำเภอสนม อำเภอโซ่พิสัย อำเภอโนนสะอาด และอำเภอนาจะหลวย พ.ศ. ๒๕๒๐|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2520/A/031/326.PDF|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081203095705/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2520/A/031/326.PDF|url-status=dead|archive-date=December 3, 2008|date=April 12, 1977|language=Thai}}</ref>

==Administration==
The district is divided into four sub-districts (''[[tambon]]s''), which are further subdivided into 33 villages (''[[muban]]s''). Plai Phraya has township (''[[thesaban tambon]]'') status, covering parts of ''tambon'' Plai Phraya. Each of the ''tambons'' is administrated by a tambon administrative organization (TAO).
