Key Facts

Pulau-Pulau Aru is a regency (kabupaten) within the Maluku province of Indonesia, representing the most specific administrative level in this hierarchical structure. Located in the easternmost part of Indonesia, this regency encompasses the Aru Islands archipelago in the Arafura Sea, situated south of West Papua and northwest of Australia. The regency covers approximately 6,325 square kilometers of land area across numerous islands, with the main islands being Wokam, Kobroor, Maikoor, and Trangan. Administratively, Pulau-Pulau Aru is divided into 10 districts (kecamatan) that govern the various islands and settlements throughout the archipelago. The regency's capital is Dobo, located on Wokam Island, which serves as the main urban center and transportation hub for the entire island group. With a population of around 85,000 people, the regency maintains a relatively low population density, reflecting its archipelagic nature and limited urban development. The economy primarily revolves around fisheries, pearl farming, and the collection of marine products, particularly sea cucumbers and trochus shells. As the definitive administrative authority for postal and addressing services throughout the Aru Islands, this regency provides the framework for accessing accurate postal code information for all its constituent districts and settlements.
