Yaremche Municipality was an administrative subdivision of the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. Population: 23,186 (2020 est.)[1]. The municipality was created on December 30, 1977 out of the Nadvirna Raion. In 2006 the official name of it changed from Yaremcha to Yaremche. On December 14, 2006 the spelling of Yaremche officially has changed from Yaremcha. Most of the municipality is located within the Nadvirna Raion consisting of three non-adjacent territories (split by high mountains), one of which is bordering also Zakarpattia Oblast.

Administratively, until 2020, Yaremche was designated the city of oblast significance, and Yaremche Municipality was the territory subordinated to Yaremche City Council. On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast was reduced to six, and Yaremche Municipality was abolished as an administrative subdivision and merged into Nadvirna Raion.[2][3] The last estimate of the municipality population was 622,012 (2020 est.)[1].
