The FATA Interim Governance Regulation, 2018 was a law signed by the President of Pakistan on May 28, 2018, which replaces the Frontier Crimes Regulations (FCR) and outline how the Federally Administered Tribal Areas will be governed "within a timeframe of two years" as the region is merged with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa through the passage of the Thirty-first Amendment to the Constitution of Pakistan.

An official described the regulation as a combination of the FCR and the rejected Tribal Areas Rewaj Act.

The tribal agencies are replaced by districts and the frontier regions are made sub-divisions.

The establishment of new hamlets or villages, or the creation of towers or walled enclosures on the frontiers of the country, is prohibited without permission of the Deputy Commissioner.

The Governor has the power to relocate settlements near the border,[3] as long as it rewards compensation to the inhabitants.
