Nong Om (Thai: หนองอ้ม) is a tambon (subdistrict) located in the northernmost area of Thung Si Udom district, in Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand.[1][2] In 2021, it had a population of 5,993 people.[1] Neighbouring subdistricts are (clockwise from the south) Khok Chamrae, Na Hom, Thung Thoeng, Na Krasaeng, and Som Sa-at.[2]
The tambon Nong Om was formed in 1969, by splitting off 10 villages in the southeastern region of Thung Thoeng in Det Udom district.[3] Later in 1991, the southwestern region of the tambon, which consisted of eight villages, was cut off to establish a new division, Khok Chamrae.[4] A year after the demarcation, both Nong Om and Khok Chamrae, together with three other subdistricts, including Thung Thoeng, Na Kasem, and Kut Ruea, were split off from Det Udom district to create a minor district (king amphoe) called Thung Si Udom.[5] However, the inclusion of tambon Thung Thoeng into the new district was undone a year later, on June 1, 1993.[6]
