Khmelnytskyi Raion is divided in a way that follows the general administrative scheme in Ukraine. Local government is also organized along a similar scheme nationwide. Consequently, raions were subdivided into councils, which were the prime level of administrative division in the country.

Each of the raion's urban localities administered their own councils, often containing a few other villages within its jurisdiction. However, only a handful of rural localities were organized into councils, which also might contain a few villages within its jurisdiction.

Accordingly, Khmelnytskyi Raion was divided into:

  • 1 settlement council—made up of the urban-type settlement of Chornyi Ostriv
  • 38 village councils

Overall, before 2020 the raion had a total of 78 populated localities, consisting of one urban-type settlement, 76 villages, and one rural settlement.

Before the 2020 reform, the raion consisted of four hromadas:

  • Chornyi Ostriv settlement hromada with the administration in Chornyi Ostriv;
  • Hvardiiske rural hromada with the administration in Hvardiiske;
  • Lisovi Hrynivtsi rural hromada with the administration in Lisovi Hrynivtsi;
  • Rozsosha rural hromada with the administration in Rozsosha.

History

Khmelnytskyi Raion was established on January 4, 1965, out of a combination of village councils from Krasyliv Raion, Letychiv Raion, Yarmolyntsi Raion, Horodok Raion, and Volochysk Raions.
