The Municipality of Rogatec (pronounced [ɾɔˈɡaːtəts] ; Slovene : Občina Rogatec) is a municipality in eastern Slovenia, on the border with Croatia. The seat of the municipality is the town of Rogatec. The area belongs to the traditional region of Styria. It is now included in the Savinja Statistical Region.
