Pandeglang Regency (; ) is a regency of Banten province, Indonesia. It is mainly located on the west and south coasts of the island of Java and is the most westerly regency on Java Island, but it also includes several offshore islands such as Panaitan, Peucang, Deli and Tinjil. It is bounded by Serang Regency to the north, Lebak Regency to the east, the Java Sea (part of the Indian Ocean) to the south, and the Sunda Strait (separating Java from Sumatra) to the west. The regency has a land area of 2,746.81 km2, and a population at the 2010 Census of 1,149,610,Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011. rising to 1,272,687 at the 2020 Census;Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021. the official estimate as of mid-2024 was 1,437,046 (comprising 738,650 males and 698,396 females).Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2025, Kabupaten Pandeglang Dalam Angka 2025 (Katalog-BPS 1102001.3601) The regency seat is the town of Pandeglang in the northeast of the regency, at the centre of a more densely populated region close to Greater Jakarta, while outside of that northeast agglomeration the principal centre is the town of Labuan on the west coast.

These are grouped geographically for convenience into 3 parts (without any administrative significance) - the relatively underpopulated southern group facing onto the Java Sea but including the renowned Ujung Kulon National Park, with 45.3% of the regency's land area, but only 13.4% of its inhabitants; a middle group including 43.1% of the land area and 53.8% of its population; and a northeast group centered on the urbanised Pandeglang, Majasari and Karangtanjung Districts, with just 11.65% of the regency's land area but with 32.75% of its population.
The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages in each district (totaling 326 rural desa and 13 urban kelurahan - the latter comprising the urban centres of Pandeglang, Majasari and Karangtanjung Districts, all in the northeast corner of the regency), and their postal codes.

Notes: (a) including 32 offshore islands, mainly in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra (of which the largest is Panaitan Island or Pulau Panaitan), together with the large Ujung Kulon peninsula and offshore Peucang Island, in the far southwest of Java. 94.82% of the district's land area (603.62 km2) is administratively in the desa of Ujungjaya (with 4,528 inhabitants in 2023), which includes the National Park. (b) including the two small offshore islands of Pulau Deli and Pulau Tinjil, both south of Java. (c) including the small offshore island of Pulau Liwungan. (d) including the small offshore island of Pulau Popole. (e) comprising the 4 kelurahan of Babakan Kalanganyar, Kabayan, Kadomas and Pandeglang. (f) comprising the 5 kelurahan of Cilaja, Karaton, Pagerbatu, Saruni and Sukaratu. (g) comprising the 4 kelurahan of Cigadung, Juhut, Kadumerak and Pagadungan.
Tourism The regency contains the Ujung Kulon National Park, covering 497.59 km2, including the entirety of the large peninsula in the southwest corner of the regency, together with most of the offshore islands including Panaitan Island and Peucang Island, and famous for its single-horned Javan rhinoceros and crocodiles. It also includes Carita Beach, Tanjung Lesung Beach Resort and the public Bodur Beach (also in Tanjung Lesung).
Special Economic Zone Based on Government Regulation (PP) No. 26/2012, PT Jababeka Tbk has been mandated to develop a Special Economic Zone in Tanjung Lesung. It is located 170 kilometers from Jakarta, via the Jakarta–Tangerang Toll Road, then the Tangerang–Merak Toll Road, and finally the small road to Tanjung Lesung, taking in all 4 to 5 hours. So, the company will build an 83-kilometer highway from Serang to Panimbang, because building a toll road will be difficult with the land acquisitions. An airstrip in Panimbang is also being considered because from there it only needs 10 minutes to reach Tanjung Lesung. The company has acquired partners to build a Cruise Port in a 50 hectares area, which will be built soon.
Climate Pandeglang has a tropical rainforest climate (Af) with heavy rainfall year-round. The following climate data is for the town of Pandeglang.
