The Sanjak of Preveza (Ottoman Turkish: سنجاق پرهوزه, Sancağı-i Preveze; Greek: Σαντζάκι Πρεβέζης, Santzáki Prevézis), also once known as the Liva of Preveza (لواء پرهوزه, Livâ-i Preveze; Λιβάς Πρεβέζης, Livás Prevézis), was a sanjak of the Ottoman Empire named for its capital at Preveza in southern Epirus, now part of northwestern Greece. The sanjak existed from its formation in 1863 until its conquest in the First Balkan War and reorganization in 1915 as the Preveza Prefecture of the Kingdom of Greece.
