Pervomaiske Raion (Ukrainian: Первомайський район, Russian: Первомайский район, Crimean Tatar: Curçı rayonı) is one of the 25 regions of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and incorporated by Russia as the Republic of Crimea. It is situated in the north-western part of the republic. The raion is named after its administrative center, the urban-type settlement of Pervomaiske. Population: 32,789 (2014 Census).[1]

In July 2020, the Verkhovna Rada approved an administrative reform in Crimea

2020 Ukrainian Administrative Reform

In July 2020, Ukraine conducted an administrative reform throughout its de jure territory. This included Crimea, which was at the time occupied by Russia, and is still ongoing as of October 2023. Crimea was reorganized from 14 raions and 11 municipalities into 10 raions, with municipalities abolished altogether.

Pervomaiske Raion was abolished, and its territories to become a part of Qurman Raion, but this has not yet been implemented due to the ongoing Russian occupation.[2]
