The Tampin District is a district in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. The district covers 878.69 square kilometres (339.26 sq mi) and is further divided into four adat socio-political provinces (luaks): Tampin Adat Territory (which includes the town of Tampin), Ayer Kuning, Gemencheh and Pasir Besar.[4]
Tampin District is surrounded by Tangkak and Segamat Districts, Johor to the southwest, Jasin and Alor Gajah Districts, Malacca to the south, Rembau District to the west, Kuala Pilah District to the northwest and Jempol District to the north. The geographical southern terminus of the Titiwangsa Mountains, the longest mountain range in Malaysia, is located in this district.
Administrative divisions
Tampin District is divided into 7 mukims, which are:[5]

From the perspective of the adat, the district is governed separately by two different entities, where the mukims of Tampin Tengah, Repah, Keru and Tebong comprises the semi-autonomous Tampin Adat Territory governed by the Tunku Besar of Tampin, and the luaks of Gemencheh, Ayer Kuning and Pasir Besar (which includes Gemas) are protectorates of the Luak of Johol.
