List of airports in Afghanistan

This is a list of airports in Afghanistan, grouped by type and sorted by location.

Afghanistan has 4 international airports which is expected to increase to five by the end of 2014. The Kabul International Airport serves the population of Kabul and the surrounding areas, Mazar-e Sharif International Airport serves northern Afghanistan, Kandahar International Airport serves the southern parts of the country, and Herat International Airport serves the population of western Afghanistan.

Once the Ghazni International Airport is completed it will serve the population of the Ghazni and the eastern parts of the country. There are also about 16 regional domestic airports which are spread over the country in various provinces, which serve the smaller, more remote areas. Some of these airports have gravelled airside facilities and operate under visual flight rules.
