Trostianets Raion (Ukrainian: Тростянецький район) was a raion in Sumy Oblast in Central Ukraine. The administrative center of the raion was the town of Trostianets.[1] The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Sumy Oblast to five.[2][3] The last estimate of the raion population was 33,413 (2020 est.).[4]

In March 1930 the Raion was the centre of a quickly defeated pro-Ukrainian anti-Soviet Union revolt.[5]
