Tixpéhual Municipality (Spanish pronunciation: [tiʃˈpe.wal], in the Yucatec Maya language: “place of the dwarf's greeting”) is a municipality in the Mexican state of Yucatán containing (68.98 km) of land and located roughly 25 km east of the city of Mérida, Mexico.

In ancient times, the area was part of the chieftainship of Ceh Pech until the conquest. At colonization, Tixpéhual became part of the encomienda system, which was implemented in 1607.

In 1821, Yucatán was declared independent of the Spanish Crown. In 1825 the area was part of the Coastal region, with its headquarters in Izamal Municipality. In 1847, during the Caste War of Yucatán the native headman was taken to prison and tortured after being suspected of collaboration with the insurgency against the Spanish.

In 1929, Tixpéhual was part of the Tixkokob Municipality.

The municipal president is elected for a three- year term. The president appoints four Councilpersons to serve on the board for three year terms, as the Secretary and councilors of public works, nomenclature, ecology, and markets and roads.
