Three abolished raions, Novovorontsovka, Velyka Oleksandrivka, and Vysokopillia Raions were merged into Beryslav Raion.[5][6] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 45,931 (2020 est.)[7]

Beryslav Raion was divided in a way that followed the general administrative scheme in Ukraine. Local government was 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, Beryslav Raion was divided into:[4]

  • 1 city council—made up of the city of Beryslav (administrative center)
  • 1 settlement council—made up of the urban-type settlement of Kozatske
  • 29 village councils

Overall, the raion had a total of 43 populated localities, consisting of one city, one urban-type settlement, 34 villages, and seven rural settlements.[4]
