Abbottabad Tehsil (Urdu: تحصیل ایبٹ آباد) is an administrative subdivision (tehsil) of Abbottabad District in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan.

History

During the British rule, the current district of Abbottabad was created as a Tehsil of Hazara District.[2] After Pakistan′s independence from Britain on 14 August 1947, it remained a tehsil of Hazara until 1981 when the old Abbottabad Tehsil became a district, containing two tehsils - Abbottabad and Havelian.
