On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Zakarpattia Oblast was reduced to six, and the area of Tiachiv Raion was significantly expanded. [3][4] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 175,048 (2020 est.)[5]

Romanian became in September 2012 a regional language in the village of Bila Tserkva; meaning it was allowed to be used in the towns administrative office work and documents.[6] This was made possible after new legislation on languages in Ukraine was passed in the summer of 2012.[6] The Constitutional Court of Ukraine on 28 February 2018 ruled this legislation unconstitutional.[7]

The raion has one city: Tiachiv, and five urban-type settlements: Bushtyno, Dubove, Solotvyno, Teresva and Ust-Chorna.[8]
