The districts of Mozambique are divided into 405 postos.
Postos administrativos (administrative posts) are the main subdivisions of districts. This name, in use during colonial times, was abolished after independence,[1] and was replaced by localidades (localities). However, it was re-established in 1986.[2]
Administrative posts are headed by a Secretário (secretary), which before independence were called Chefes de Posto (post chief).
Administrative posts can be further subdivided into localities, also headed by secretaries.
