Objective: To estimate premature mortality due to Noncommunicable Diseases in Brazilian municipalities. Methods: This ecological study estimated premature mortality rates due to cardiovascular, chronic respiratory diseases, neoplasms and diabetes in Brazilian municipalities, for the three-year periods of 2010 to 2012 and 2015 to 2017, and analyzed spatial and temporal distribution of these rates. Data treatment combined proportional redistribution of the missing data and ill-defined causes, and the application of coefficients for under-registration correction. Local empirical Bayesian estimator was used to calculate municipal mortality rates. Results: Rates for the set of chronic diseases reduced in Brazil between the three-year periods. The average rates for the total of NCDs declined in the South, Southeast and Midwest regions, stabilized in North and increased in Northeast. Mortality rates due to cardiovascular diseases were the highest in all regions, but showed the greatest declines between the periods. Neoplasms were the second leading group of causes of death. North and Northeast stood out for the increase in the average rates for this group of causes between the periods analyzed and for concentrating the highest averages of premature mortality rates due to diabetes in the 2015 to 2017 period. Conclusions: Spatial and temporal distribution of premature mortality rates due to NCDs differed among Brazilian municipalities and regions in the three-year periods evaluated. South and Southeast perceived a reduction in the rates due to cardiovascular, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes, while North and Northeast had an increase in the rates due to neoplasms and Midwest due to diabetes.
