Jervis Bay Territory et australsk territorium[2] beliggende på det australske fastland. Det blev dannet i 1915 på land, der blev afgivet af delstaten New South Wales,[3][4] for at give forbundsregeringen adgang til havet i nærheden af Australian Capital Territory (ACT).[5]
Territoriet blev administreret af Department of the Interior (og senere Department of the Capital Territory) som om det var en del af ACT, selvom det altid har været et separat territorium i den australske føderation. Opfattelsen af at det var en del af ACT, stammer tilbage fra den grundlæggende lov Jervis Bay Territory Acceptance Act 1915, hvor der står at lovene i ACT også gælder for Jervis Bay Territory.[6] I 1989, da ACT fik selvstyre, overtog forbundsministeriet Department of the Arts, Sport, the Environment, Tourism and Territories ansvaret for administrationen af Jervis Bay Territory.
