Malta is subdivided into 6 regions (Maltese: reġjuni). Three regions were originally created by the Local Councils Act of 1993, and were integrated into the constitution in 2001.^{[1][better source needed]} Two of the regions were split into smaller ones by Act No. XVI of 2009, and Malta was divided into five regions.^[2]Act No. XIV of 2019 reorganized the subdivision, establishing six regions, and was implemented in November 2021^[3]

Each region has a Regional Council (Maltese: Kunsill Reġjonali), which consists of a Regional President, a Deputy President, an Executive Secretary and between 10 and 12 members.^[4]
