North Barito Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Barito Utara) is one of the thirteen regencies which divide the Central Kalimantan Province on the island of Kalimantan, Indonesia. It originally included much more of the northern part of the province, but on 10 April 2002 the larger northwestern part of the regency was split off to create a new Murung Raya Regency. Muara Teweh (in Teweh Tengah District) is the capital of North Barito Regency, which covers an area of 10,152.25 km2. The population of North Barito Regency was 121,573 at the 2010 Census[2] and 154,812 at the 2020 Census;[3] the official estimate as at mid 2022 was 160,235 (comprising 83,187 males and 77,048 females).[1]

Administrative Districts

At the 2010 Census, North Barito Regency consisted of six districts (kecamatan), but three additional districts were subsequently created by the splitting of existing districts. All nine are tabulated below with their areas and population totals from the 2010 Census[2] and the 2020 Census;[3] together with the official estimates as at mid 2022.[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages in each district (a total of 93 rural desa and 10 urban kelurahan), and its postal codes.
