Banyumas (Javanese: ꦧꦚꦸꦩꦱ꧀, formerly spelled "Banjoemas") Regency is a regency (Indonesian: kabupaten) in the southwestern part of Central Java province in Indonesia. Its capital is the town of Purwokerto, but that town no longer has a central administration and is split over four of the districts within the Regency, with a combined population of 231,765 as of mid-2022.[1] The Regency covers an area of 1,327.59 km2, and had a population of 1,554,527 at the 2010 Census[2] and 1,776,918 at the 2020 Census;[3] the official estimate of the population as of mid-2022 was 1,806,814 (comprising 908,981 males and 897,032 females).[1]

The term Banyumasan is also used as an adjective referring to the culture, language, and peoples of the wider Banyumas area, equivalent to the pre-independence Banyumas Residency. The language of Banyumasan is of Austronesian origin and is usually considered to be a dialect of Javanese.
