The soubashi ( Turkish: subaşı, Albanian: subash, Serbo-Croatian: subaša) was an Ottoman gubernatorial title used to describe different positions within Ottoman hierarchy, depending on the context. [1] This title was given to Ottoman timar holders who generated more than 15,000 aspers per annum [2] or to the assistants of the sanjak-bey. [3] The term was also used for the commander of the town or castle in Ottoman Empire, an ancient version of chief of police. [4]
A surname found among Balkan families, Subaša or Subašić, is derived from the title.

SUBAŠA – Upotrebljavan u više značenja; 1. Vojno-administrativni zapovjednik većih naselja od samih početaka Osmanske države; Vojno-administrativni upravnik vilajeta koji su po tome nazivani subašiluci, u stvari područja krajišta. Uslijed ekspanzije turske države subašiluci su bivali pretvarani u zijamete, dok su ostajali oni u graničnim područjima. Ovi prvi bi postajali sandžakbegovi ljudi i upravitelji hasova te vršili administrativno-policijsku vlast na tim prostorima. S druge strane, osnivanjem ziameta, svaki zaim dobio bi titulu subaše.
