The notation follows the Somaliland 2019 Local Government Act.

Grade of district

The mayor and deputy mayor of a grade A to C district are elected by the local council. The mayor and deputy mayor are elected individually, not as a set.

Grade D districts are divided into districts with provisional boundaries and districts with formal boundaries. The area of the provisional boundary district is up to 5 kilometers from the center of the district. In this district, the central government appoints a local administration consisting of a chairperson, vice chairperson, and secretary general. A Grade D district becomes a local council when its boundaries have been secured, the district has been revalued, and Parliament has approved it. However, there are no approved D districts as of 2021.
