Ash Sharqiyah North Governorate, Administrative division in northeastern Oman.

The governorate encompasses six provinces across a diverse landscape of deserts, mountains, and valleys in the northeastern part of Oman.

The region transformed from part of Ash Sharqiyah Region into its current form as a separate governorate through administrative reforms in October 2011.

Each of the six provinces maintains distinct local traditions, with Ibra serving as the central point for administrative and community gatherings.

The governorate contains multiple settlements with a total population of 271,800 residents as recorded in the 2020 national census.

Wadi Bani Khalid within the governorate features natural pools and caves formed by water erosion through limestone mountains.
