Byshiv formerly served as a centre of its own district.[2] Until 18 July 2020, Byshiv was located in Makariv Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Makariv Raion was split between Bucha and Fastiv, with Byshiv being transferred to Bucha Raion.[3][4]
