Zhovkva Raion (Ukrainian: Жо́вківський райо́н) was a raion (district) in Lviv Oblast in western Ukraine. Its administrative center was the city of Zhovkva. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Lviv Oblast to seven. The area of Zhovkva Raion was merged into Lviv Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion's population was 110,223 (2020 est.).[3]

It was established in 1940.

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of four hromadas:[4]

  • Dobrosyn-Maheriv settlement hromada with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Maheriv;
  • Kulykiv settlement hromada with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Kulykiv;
  • Rava-Ruska urban hromada with the administration in the city of Rava-Ruska;
