West Lampung Regency is a landlocked regency of Lampung Province, in the south of Sumatra, Indonesia. It was originally created on 16 August 1991 by splitting off the western districts of the existing North Lampung Regency; and until 2012 it had an area of 4,950.4 km2 of which forests occupied some 57% of the total area (as of 2011). It had a population of 418,560 people at the 2010 census. However, on 25 October 2012 the southwestern part of this area was separated from West Lampung Regency to form the new Pesisir Barat Regency (with its administrative centre at the town of Krui). The residual Lampung Barat Regency now covers an area of 2,107.99 km2 and this area had a population of 277,296 at the 2010 census and 302,139 at the 2020 census; the official estimate as of mid 2025 was 315,193 (comprising 163,452 males and 151,741 females). The regency seat is at the town of Liwa.
