The minor district (king amphoe) was established on 26 June 1996, when it was split off from Mueang Phatthalung district. The new district became effective on 15 July 1996.[1] At first named Chumphon after the main tambon, it was renamed Srinagarindra on 30 December 1996.[2]
On 15 May 2007, all 81 minor districts were upgraded to full districts.[3] On 24 August, the upgrade became official.[4]
The district is divided into four sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 42 villages (mubans). There are no municipal (thesabans). There are four tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
