Panama is divided into nine provinces (Spanish: provincias) and three provincial-level indigenous regions (Spanish: comarcas indígenas, often foreshortened to comarcas).
There are two further comarcas within provinces that are considered equivalent to a corregimiento (municipality).
The nine provinces are:
| Province | Capital |
|---|---|
| Bocas del Toro | Bocas del Toro |
| Chiriquí | David |
| Coclé | Penonomé |
| Colón | Colón |
| Darién | La Palma |
| Herrera | Chitré |
| Los Santos | Las Tablas |
| Panamá | Panamá |
| Veraguas | Santiago de Veraguas |
The three provincial-level comarcas (indicated by shading on the map above) are:
| Comarca | Capital |
|---|---|
| Emberá | Union Choco |
| Kuna Yala | El Porvenir |
| Ngöbe-Buglé | Chichica |
The two sub-provincial comarcas are:
