Hachijō Subprefecture (八丈支庁, Hachijō-shichō) is a subprefecture of Tokyo Metropolis, Japan. The organization belongs to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau Of General Affairs.
It includes the following towns and villages on the Izu Islands:
- Hachijō (town on Hachijō-jima and Hachijō-kojima)
- Aogashima (village on Aogashima)
The subprefecture covers 78.6 square km and 8790 people.
Additionally, the subprefecture includes the following uninhabited islands, which are the four southernmost Izu Islands. These islands currently do not belong to any municipality, because both Hachijō and Aogashima claim administrative rights, from north to south:
- Bayonnaise Rocks (Beyonēzu Retsugan)
- Smith Island (Sumisu-tō)
- Tori-shima
- Lot's Wife (Sōfu-iwa)
Among the islands of the subprefecture, only Hachijōjima and Aogashima are inhabited.
