This article is about the Chief Commissioner's Province of the British Raj. For the 1937–1963 Crown colony, see Aden Colony. For the protectorate in the hinterland, see Aden Protectorate.
The Chief Commissioner's Province of Aden was the administrative status under which the former Aden Settlement (1839–1932) was placed from 1932 to 1937. Under that new status, the Viceroy of India assumed direct control over Aden, which had hitherto been administered by the government of the Bombay Presidency. The Aden Protectorate remained unaffected by this change.
