Kreis Koschmin (Polish: Powiat Koźmiński) was a district in Regierungsbezirk Posen, in the Prussian Province of Posen from 1887 to 1919. Today, the territory of this district lies in the southern part of the Greater Poland Voivodeship in Poland.

On October 1, 1887, the Koschmin district was formed from the northern part of the Krotoschin district. The town of Koschmin was the district capital.

On December 27, 1918, the Greater Poland uprising began in the province of Posen, and by January 2, 1919, the town of Koschmin was under Polish control. On February 16, 1919, an armistice ended the Polish-German fighting. With the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919, the German government officially ceded the Koschmin district to the newly founded Second Polish Republic.
