The Regency is divided into 35 districts (kecamatan), tabulated below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 Census^[2] and the 2020 Census,^[3] together with the official estimates as of mid-2023.^[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages in each district (totaling 326 rural desa and 13 urban kelurahan - the latter comprising the urban centres of Pandeglang, Majasari and Karangtanjung Districts), and its postal codes.

Notes: (a) including 32 offshore islands, mainly in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra (of which the largest is Panaitan Island or Pulau Panaitan), together with the large Ujung Kulon peninsula in the far southwest of Java.
(b) including the two small offshore islands of Pulau Deli and Pulau Tinjil, both south of Java. (c) including the small offshore island of Pulau Liwungan. (d) including the small offshore island of Pulau Popole.
(e) comprising the 4 kelurahan of Babakan Kalanganyar, Kabayan, Kadomas and Pandeglang. (f) comprising the 5 kelurahan of Cilaja, Karaton, Pagerbatu, Saruni and Sukaratu.
(g) comprising the 4 kelurahan of Cigadung, Juhut, Kadumerak and Pagadungan.

The regency contains the Ujung Kulon National Park (occupying the entirety of the large peninsula in the southwest corner of the regency, and famous for its single-horned Javan rhinoceros), Carita Beach, Tanjung Lesung Beach Resort and the public Bodur Beach (also in Tanjung Lesung).^[4]

Based on Government Regulation (PP) No. 26/2012, PT Jababeka Tbk has been mandated to develop a Special Economic Zone in Tanjung Lesung. It is located 170 kilometers from Jakarta, via the Jakarta–Tangerang Toll Road, then the Tangerang–Merak Toll Road, and finally the small road to Tanjung Lesung, taking in all 4 to 5 hours. So, the company will build an 83-kilometer highway from Serang to Panimbang, because building a toll road will be difficult with the land acquisitions. An airstrip in Panimbang is also being considered because from there it only needs 10 minutes to reach Tanjung Lesung. The company has acquired partners to build a Cruise Port in a 50 hectares area, which will be built soon.^[5]
