History
editUntil 18 July, 2020, Komyshany belonged to Kherson Municipality. The municipality as an administrative unit was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five. The area of Kherson Municipality was merged into Kherson Raion.[3][4]
Until 26 January 2024, Komyshany was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Komyshany became a rural settlement.[5]
