Administrative districts

Mappi Regency in 2010 comprised ten districts (distrik). However, by 2015 the number of districts had been increased to fifteen; the five additional districts that have been created since 2010 are Bamgi, Passue Bawah, Syahcame, Ti Zain and Yakomi.

The districts are listed below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 Census[4] and that of 2015.[5] The table also includes location of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages (rural desa and urban kelurahan) in each district, and its post code.
