The Aleksandriya uezd[a] was a county (uezd) of the Kherson Governorate of the Russian Empire. It bordered the Chigirin uezd of the Kiev Governorate to the north, the Kremenchug uezd to the northeast, the Verkhnedneprovsk uezd of the Yekaterinoslav Governorate to the east, the Kherson uezd to the south, and the Elisavetgrad uezd to the west. The Aleksandriya uezd was eponymously named for its administrative center, Aleksandriya (modern-day Oleksandriia).
