Bilozerka Raion (Ukrainian: Білозерський район) was one of the 18 former administrative raions (districts) of Kherson Oblast in southern Ukraine. Its administrative center was located in the urban-type settlement of Bilozerka. The raion was disestablished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five. The area of the former Bilozerka Raion was merged into Kherson Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 64,790 (2020 est.)[3]

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of five hromadas:[4]
