In 1907, Klang village was the administrative center of a former district "Matchim Det Udom" (มัชฌิมเดชุอดม; Central Det Udom), which was later merged with three other districts, Prajim Det Udom (ปจิมเดชอุดม; Western Det Udom), Uthai Det Udom (Eastern Det Udom), and Dom Pradit, to create a new district, Det Udom district in 1912.

In 1972, together with five villages split from Na Chaluai, five of the villages in Klang were broke off to form a new subdistrict, Non Sombun, which currently is a tambon in Na Chaluai district.

In 1976, a village on the bank of the Lam Dom Yai River, Waree Udom (วารีอุดม), was split off to establish a new subdistrict, Tha Pho Si, by combining with five other villages on the other side of the river, which had been split from Mueang Det.

In 1979, the eastern region became an independent subdistrict, Bua Ngam.
