Lyman Raion (Ukrainian: Лиманський район) was a raion (district) in Odesa Oblast of Ukraine. Its administrative center was the urban-type settlement of Dobroslav. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Odesa Oblast to seven. The area of Lyman Raion was split between Berezivka and Odesa Raions.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 72,605 (2020 est.).[3]

On 21 May 2016, Verkhovna Rada adopted decision to rename Kominternivske Raion to Lyman Raion and Kominternivske to Dobroslav according to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.[4]

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of six hromadas:[5]
