Mae Lan ({{langx|th|แม่ลาน}}, {{IPA|th|mɛ̂ː lāːn|pron}}) is a district (amphoe) of Pattani province, southern Thailand.

History

The minor district (king amphoe) Mae Lan was formed on 1 April 1989 by splitting off three tambons from Khok Pho district.{{cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=106|issue=40 ง|pages=1888|script-title=th:ประกาศกระทรวงมหาดไทย เรื่อง แบ่งท้องที่อำเภอโคกโพธิ์ จังหวัดปัตตานี ตั้งเป็นกิ่งอำเภอแม่ลาน|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2532/D/040/1888.PDF|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120419234301/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2532/D/040/1888.PDF|url-status=dead|archive-date=April 19, 2012|date=March 14, 1989|language=Thai}} On 7 September 1995, it was upgraded to a full district.{{cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=112|issue=32 ก|pages=1–3|script-title=th:พระราชกฤษฎีกาตั้งอำเภอด่านมะขามเตี้ย อำเภอแก่งหางแมว อำเภอภักดีชุมพล อำเภอเวียงแก่น อำเภอแม่วาง อำเภอถ้ำพรรณรา อำเภอบ่อเกลือ อำเภอโนนสุวรรณ อำเภอห้วยราช อำเภอแม่ลาน อำเภอบางแก้ว อำเภอป่าพะยอม อำเภอหนองม่วงไข่ อำเภอยางสีสุราช อำเภอจังหาร อำเภอบ้านธิ อำเภอภูสิงห์ อำเภอบางกล่ำ อำเภอวังม่วง และอำเภอนายูง พ.ศ. ๒๕๓๘|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2538/A/032/1.PDF |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090126234230/http://ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2538/A/032/1.PDF |url-status=dead |archive-date=January 26, 2009 |date=August 8, 1995|language=Thai}}

{{Asof|2018}}, the provisions of Thailand's Internal Security Act remain imposed on Mae Lan District. Internal security restrictions, maintained by Thailand's Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) can result in curfews, prohibited entry, or prohibited transport of goods. It is considered one step below the imposition of full martial law.{{cite news|last1=Raksaseri| first1=Kornchanok |title=Isoc power boost 'not political'| url=https://www.bangkokpost.com/news/general/1391986/isoc-power-boost-not-political|accessdate=8 January 2018|work=Bangkok Post|date=8 January 2018}}
