Kisaran is a large town in the North Sumatra province of Indonesia. Kisaran is the administrative capital of Asahan Regency. Kisaran does not now have the status of an independent city, but is composed of two administrative districts (kecamatan) - West Kisaran District and East Kisaran District. Kisaran is situated on the Trans-Sumatra Highway, and is also located in the path of trains in northern Sumatra.

The previous status of Kisaran was an administrative city, independent of the regency, which was then abolished and divided into two districts within the regency in 2003 because it did not meet the increasing requirements of the autonomous region.

Government

Kisaran has an area of 62.98 km2 , and is divided into two districts (East Kisaran, or Kisaran Timur, and West Kisaran, or Kisaran Barat). These are in turn divided into 25 Urban Villages (kelurahan), listed below with their populations at the 2020 Census:Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021.
