• Romania is divided into eight development regions (which are not administrative divisions per se but rather exist to co-ordinate regional development)
• The development regions are divided into 41 counties and one municipality (Bucharest, the national capital)
• The 41 counties are divided into 2686 communes (for rural areas) and 265 cities and municipalities (for urban areas). Municipality status is given to larger cities; municipalities have a more decentralised administration than cities.

Beyond the communal and city or municipal level, there are no further administrative subdivisions. However, communes are divided into villages (villages having no individual administration and hence not being an administrative division). There are 13,092 villages.

According to the Romanian National Commission of Statistics (NCS), the Romanian territory is divided into eight regions, each consisting of six counties (administrative units) located in the same geographical area and having about the same population density. The eight regions are North-East, South-East, South, South-West, West, North-West, Center, and Bucharest. Bucharest is the only region that includes just one county, Ilfov. The criteria used by NCS for delimiting the regions is a combination of geographical location and homogeneity based on population density.
