Gonbaki (Persian: گنبکی, formerly Mohammadabad-e Gonbaki, Romanized as Moḩammadābād-e Gonbakī, Mohammad Ābād-e-Gonbakī and Moḩammadābād Gonbakī; also known as Moḩammadābād-e Gonbagī and Moḩammadābād)[3] is a city in the Central District of Gonbaki County, Kerman province, Iran, and serves as both capital of the county and of the district.[4]

In October 2011, the village of Mohammadabad-e Gonbaki merged with the villages of Hojjatabad, Rigan Abbasabad, Aliabad, Behtarabad, Dowlatabad, Hasanabad, and Jannatabad to form the new city of Gonbaki.[5]

At the 2006 National Census, its population (as Mohammadad-e Gonbaki) was 128 in 34 households, when it was a village in Gonbaki Rural District of the former Rigan District of Bam County.[6] The village did not appear in the census of 2016, by which time the rural district had been separated from the county in the establishment of Rigan County.[7] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 7,210 people in 1,869 households,[2] by which time Mohammadabad-e Gonbaki had merged with six villages to become the city of Gonbaki.[5]

In 2023, Gonbaki District was separated from Rigan County in the establishment of Gonbaki County and divided into two districts and four rural districts, with the city of Gonbaki as its capital and only city.[4]
