The '''Podlasie Voivodship''' (in [[Polish language|Polish]] ''województwo podlaskie'') is an administrative and local government region or [[voivodship]] of north-eastern [[Poland]].
 
It was created on 1 January [[1999]] out of the former [[Bialystok Voivodship|Białystok]], [[Lomza Voivodship|Łomża]] and half of [[Suwalki Voivodship|Suwałki]] voivodships as a result of Local Government Reorganization Act of 1998. The voivodship's name recalls the region's traditional name of [[Podlasie]] (''Podlachia'').
