Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox subdivision type Hungary is subdivided administratively into 19 counties (Template:Lang, singular: Template:Lang) and the capital city (Template:Lang) Budapest. The counties are further subdivided into 174 districts (Template:Lang, singular: Template:Lang). The capital Budapest is subdivided into 23 districts (Template:Lang, singular: Template:Lang).<ref name='HNK2019'>Gazetteer of Hungary, 1 January 2019, Központi Statisztikai Hivatal, 2019, ISSN 1217-2952, retrieved 8 August 2021.</ref>

There are 25 cities with county rights (Template:Lang, singular: Template:Lang), sometimes called urban counties. The local authorities of these towns have extended powers but they are not independent territorial units.

The current system of counties has evolved from medieval fiefdoms of the Kingdom of Hungary; each fiefdom was ruled from a castle (Hungarian: Template:Lang). Between 1950 and 2022, the counties of Hungary were officially called Template:Lang (singular: Template:Lang). On 1 January 2023, the original historical name Template:Lang was officially restored.
