Dubrovnik-Neretva County (Dubrovačko-Neretvanska Županija)
Although the 9 kilometres-long stretch of coast belonging to Neum effectively makes the southern part of the county an exclave (disconnecting it from mainland Croatia) it is still connected with the rest of the country via the Pelješac Bridge. Road traffic going to and from Dubrovnik through Neum is usually less subject to customs controls in order to reduce the traffic congestion. The road connecting Dubrovnik to the rest of the country via Neum has one lane per direction and bus lines passing through Neum often make rest stops there so that passengers can take advantage of lower Bosnian taxes and purchase tobacco and alcoholic beverages as they tend to be cheaper there.
On the local level, the Dubrovnik-Neretva County is further subdivided into 5 cities (grad, pl. gradovi) and 17 municipalities (općina, pl. općine):
* City of Dubrovnik (county seat)
* Town of Korčula
* Town of Metković
* Town of Opuzen
* Town of Ploče
* Municipality of Blato
* Municipality of Dubrovačko Primorje
