Bireuën Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Bireuen) is a regency of Aceh, the westernmost province of Indonesia. It is located on the island of Sumatra, and was created on 4 October 1999 from the former western districts of North Aceh Regency. The capital is the town of Bireuën, 105 miles east of the provincial capital, Banda Aceh. The regency covers an area of 1,796.97 square kilometres and had a population of 340,271 people according to the 2000 Census;^[2] at the 2010 Census it had a population of 389,288,^[3] which had risen to 436,418 at the 2020 Census;^[4] the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 453,242 - comprising 224,053 males and 229,189 females.^[1] It is bordered by the Strait of Malacca on the northeast coastline. Bireuen has been affected by the clashes between the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) and the government, and by the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami on 26 December 2004.

The regency's name is commonly spelled without the diaeresis on the letter Ë: Kabupaten Bireuen (in Acehnese, Ë represents a schwa ([ə]) in diphthongs).
