Angola is divided into twenty-one provinces, known in Portuguese as províncias. On 14 August 2024, Angola's National Assembly approved a law to create three new provinces:
- Cuando Cubango Province was divided into Cuando Province and Cubango Province;
- Icolo e Bengo Province was separated from Luanda Province; and
- Moxico Leste Province was separated from Moxico Province.
This law went into effect with its publication in the official gazette of Angola on 5 September 2024, and are expected to become operational in 2025. The current provinces are tabulated below:
