Key Facts

Ishtarlay is one of the districts of Daykundi Province, located in central Afghanistan. As part of the Hazarajat region, it is predominantly inhabited by Hazara communities and is characterized by its mountainous terrain and rural settlement patterns. Daykundi itself was established as a separate province in 2004, carved out of Uruzgan, and Ishtarlay plays a vital role in its administrative structure. The district covers a largely rugged area where agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, with farming of wheat, barley, and orchard products such as almonds and apricots being common. Livestock rearing also contributes significantly to local livelihoods. While precise population data can vary, estimates suggest that tens of thousands of residents live in scattered villages across the district’s valleys and hillsides. Like other parts of Daykundi, Ishtarlay faces challenges in terms of infrastructure, healthcare, and education services, but it remains an important unit within the province’s governance system. Although not formally subdivided into municipalities, the district encompasses numerous villages that rely on the district center for administration. For practical uses such as logistics, communication, and government services, accessing postal code information for Ishtarlay and its villages is an essential resource.
