Provinces of Peru

Supreme Court of the RepublicPresident Javier Arévalo Vela [es] The provinces of Peru (Spanish: provincias) are the second-level administrative subdivisions of the country.

While provinces in the sparsely populated Amazon rainforest of eastern Peru tend to be larger, there is a large concentration of them in the north-central area of the country.

The table below shows all provinces with their capitals and the region in which they are located.

The UBIGEO code uniquely identifies each province.

Provinces in which the region's capital is located all have an UBIGEO code ending in 01.
