The area was at first part of Tha Uthen district. On 1 April 1926, it was split off as the minor district (king amphoe) Akat Amnui (อากาศอำนวย), the present day Akat Amnui District in neighboring Sakon Nakhon was also originally controlled from Tha Uthen. The minor district consisted of the seven tambons: Na Wa, Ban Kha, Ban Siao, Sam Phong, Ban Waeng, Na Thom, and Ban Phaeng.[1] The minor district was renamed Si Songkhram in 1939,[2] and was upgraded to a full district on 10 March 1953.[3]
