Payam (administrative division)

A payam is the second-lowest administrative division, below counties,^[1] in South Sudan. Payams are required to have a minimum population of 25000. They are further subdivided into a variable number of bomas.^[2] As of 2017, South Sudan has 540 payams and 2500 bomas.

The unit of administration was introduced by the SPLM/A^[2] and formalized at the National Convention of New Sudan.^[3] The equivalent unit in neighboring Kenya and Uganda is sub-county.
