Tartar (Azerbaijani: Tərtər) is a rayon of Azerbaijan. Most of it has been under the control of the breakaway Nagorno-Karabakh Republic since the Nagorno-Karabakh War, as part of Martakert Province.

IDP's from Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding occupied regions were moved to Tartar rayon from tent settlements around the country. The IDPs live in new houses built by the government.[1]
