Bilmak Raion (Ukrainian: Більмацький район), until May 2016 Kuibysheve Raion (Ukrainian: Куйбишевський район), was one of raions (districts) of Zaporizhzhia Oblast in southern Ukraine. The administrative center of the region was the urban-type settlement of Bilmak. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Zaporizhzhia Oblast to five. The area of Bilmak Raion was merged into Polohy Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 20,922 (2020 est.)[3].
On 21 May 2016, Verkhovna Rada adopted decision to rename Kuibysheve Raion to Bilmak Raion and Kuibysheve to Bilmak according to the law prohibiting names of communist origin.[4]
