Aghdam District is one of the 66 administrative divisions of Azerbaijan. It is located in the west of the country and belongs to the Karabakh Economic Region. The district borders the districts of Khojaly, Kalbajar, Tartar, Khojavend, Aghjabadi, and Barda. Its capital is de jure Aghdam, however the current de facto capital is Quzanlı. As of 2020, the district had a nominal population of 204,000.[1]

Most of the territory of the district was under Armenia following the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in the early 1990s. However, as part of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement which ended the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War, the city of Agdam and the surrounding district was assigned to Azerbaijani control on 20 November 2020.
