Nord-Trøndelag County Municipality (Norwegian: Nord-Trøndelag fylkeskommune) was the regional governing administration of the old Nord-Trøndelag county in Norway. The county municipality was established in its current form on 1 January 1976 when the law was changed to allow elected county councils in Norway. The county municipality was dissolved on 1 January 2018, when Nord-Trøndelag was merged with the neighboring Sør-Trøndelag county, creating the new Trøndelag county which is led by the Trøndelag County Municipality.

The main responsibilities of the county municipality included the running of 12 upper secondary schools, with 7,000 pupils. It administered the 1,771 kilometres (1,100 mi) of county roadways, public transport, dental care, culture and cultural heritage. The administration is located in Steinkjer.
