A Provincial Superior is a major superior of a religious institute acting under the institute's Superior General and exercising a general supervision over all the members of that institute in a territorial division of the order called a "province"—similar to but not to be confused with an ecclesiastical province made up of particular churches or dioceses under the supervision of a Metropolitan Bishop.
 The division of a religious institute into provinces is generally along geographical lines, and may consist of one or more countries, or of only a part of a country.
 There may be, however, one or more houses of one province situated within the physical territory of another since the jurisdiction over the individual religious is personal rather than territorial.
 The title of the office is often abbreviated to Provincial.
