The principality of [[Liechtenstein]] is divided into eleven [[municipality|municipalities]] (''{{langx|de|Gemeinden}}'', [[grammatical number|singular]] ''{{lang|de|Gemeinde}}''), most consisting of only a single [[town]]. Five of the ''{{lang|de|Gemeinden}}'' fall within the electoral district of {{lang|de|[[Unterland (electoral district)|Unterland]]}} (lower country), while the other six are within the {{lang|de|[[Oberland (electoral district)|Oberland]]}} (upper country).

==Exclaves and enclaves==

The municipalities of Liechtenstein, the ''{{lang|de|Gemeinden}}'', exhibit complex shapes, despite their small size.

Seven of the ''{{lang|de|Gemeinden}}'' have one or more [[exclave]]s, in addition to the main territory:

* Gamprin: 1 exclave
* Eschen: 1 exclave
* Planken: 4 exclaves, of which 1 is a true enclave
* Schaan: 4 exclaves, of which 1 is a true enclave
* Vaduz: 6 exclaves, of which 2 are true enclaves
* Triesenberg: 1 exclave
* Balzers: 2 exclaves

==Data codes==
In [[ISO 3166-2]], the [[ISO 3166-2:LI|codes of the municipalities]] start with LI-, followed by two digits (01–11, assigned in alphabetical order).

In [[FIPS 10-4]] (standard withdrawn in 2008), the [[List of FIPS region codes (J-L)#LS: Liechtenstein|codes of the municipalities]] started with LS-, followed by the same two digits as the ISO codes.

As a member of the [[European Free Trade Association|EFTA]], Liechtenstein is included in the [[Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics]] (NUTS). The three NUTS levels all correspond to the country itself (NUTS-1: LI0; NUTS-2: LI00; NUTS-3: LI000). Below the NUTS levels, there are two [[local administrative unit|LAU]] levels (LAU-1: electoral districts; LAU-2: municipalities).
