# Provincies van Algerije

Algerije is onderverdeeld in 58 provincies (wilaya). Sinds de onafhankelijkheid van het land is de bestuurlijke indeling driemaal gewijzigd, in 1974, in 1983 en in 2019. In 1968 werd de benaming département vervangen door wilaya (Nederlands meervoud: wilaya's; Arabisch meervoud: wilayat). Van 1983 tot november 2019 was de indeling als volgt:
