Sosnytsia Raion (Ukrainian: Сосницький район) was a raion (district) of Chernihiv Oblast, northern Ukraine. Its administrative centre was located at the urban-type settlement of Sosnytsia. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Chernihiv Oblast to five. The area of Sosnytsia Raion was merged into Koriukivka Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 17,377 (2020 est.)[3]

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of one hromada, with the administration in Sosnytsia.[4]
