Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, Volsky District is one of the thirty-eight in the oblast.[1] The town of Volsk serves as its administrative center,[2] despite being incorporated separately as a town under oblast jurisdiction—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts (and which, in addition to Khvalynsk, also includes one urban-type settlement and three rural localities).[9]

As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Volsky Municipal District,[4] with Volsk Town Under Oblast Jurisdiction being incorporated within it as Volsk Urban Settlement.[5]
