List of cities in Kyiv Oblast

There are 26 populated places in Kyiv Oblast, Ukraine, that have been officially granted city status () by the Verkhovna Rada, the country's parliament. Settlements with more than 10,000 people are eligible for city status, although the status is typically also granted to settlements of historical or regional importance. As of 5 December 2001, the date of the first and only official census in the country since independence, the most populous city in the oblast was Bila Tserkva, with a population of 200,131 people, while the least populous city outside the Chernobyl exclusion zone was Rzhyshchiv, with 8,447 people. Although it is completely surrounded by and serves as the administrative capital of the oblast, the city of Kyiv – marked with an asterisk () and in bold italics in the table – is legally excluded from Kyiv Oblast and is instead given special status by the constitution of Ukraine, with the Kyiv City State Administration maintaining independence from the Kyiv Oblast State Administration. In the 2001 census, Kyiv city, which also serves as the national capital of Ukraine, had a population of 2,611,327.

From independence in 1991 to 2020, 13 cities in the oblast (including the abandoned city of Pripyat) were designated as cities of regional significance (municipalities), which had self-government under city councils, while the oblast's remaining 13 cities (including the partially abandoned city of Chernobyl) were located amongst 25 raions (districts) as cities of district significance, which are subordinated to the governments of the raions. On 18 July 2020, an administrative reform abolished and merged the oblast's raions and cities of regional significance into seven new, expanded raions. The seven raions that make up the oblast are Bila Tserkva, Boryspil, Brovary, Bucha, Fastiv, Obukhiv, and Vyshhorod. Although the Chernobyl exclusion zone is de jure part of Kyiv Oblast, it is de facto managed separately by the subordinated to the Ministry of Energy.
