Inkerman is a geographic parish in Gloucester County, New Brunswick, Canada.[4]

For governance purposes it is divided between the towns of Caraquet, Hautes-Terres, and Shippagan, the Pokemouche 13 Indian reserve, the regional municipality of Tracadie;[5] all are members of the Acadian Peninsula Regional Service Commission.[6]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between Tracadie and the local service districts of Evangéline, Inkerman Centre, Landry Office, Maltempec,[a] and Pokemouche.[7]

The local service district of the same name, which included only part of the parish, was amalgamated into the Regional Municipality of Grand Tracadie–Sheila on July 1, 2014,[8] causing some misunderstanding of its status.
