The Nanggroe Aceh Party ({{langx|id|Partai Nanggroe Aceh}}) or Aceh State Party is a regional political party in Indonesia. It was established as National Aceh Party (Partai Nasional Aceh), as a result of a split within the Aceh Party triggered by disagreements over the candidate for governor in the 2012 Aceh gubernatorial election. It was founded by Irwandi Yusuf, who was Aceh's governor between 2007 and 2012.{{cite news |title=Titah Ketua dari Penjara: Kisah Partai Lokal Terbesar Kedua di Aceh |url=https://kumparan.com/acehkini/titah-ketua-dari-penjara-kisah-partai-lokal-terbesar-kedua-di-aceh-1yfkOSf0K0C/2 |access-date=11 July 2023 |work=Kumparan |date=16 August 2022 |language=id-ID}} The party qualified to contest the 2014 elections in Aceh, and won 4.7 percent of the vote, winning three seats in the provincial legislature.{{cite book | first1 = Bestian |last1 = Nainggolan |first2 = Yohan |last2 = Wahyu | title = Partai Politik Indonesia 1999-2019 | publisher = Kompas Media Nusantara | date = 2016 | location = Jakarta |pages = 230, 233–234 | language = Indonesian | isbn = 978-602-412-005-4}}
