Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Belebeyevsky District is one of the fifty-four in the Republic of Bashkortostan. It is divided into one settlement council (with the administrative center in the work settlement of Priyutovo) and fifteen selsoviets, which comprise eighty-eight rural localities. The town of Belebey serves as the administrative center of the district, despite being incorporated separately as a town of republic significance—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.
As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Belebeyevsky Municipal District, with the town of republic significance of Belebey being incorporated within it as Belebey Urban Settlement. The settlement council is also incorporated as an urban settlement, and the fifteen selsoviets are incorporated as fifteen rural settlements within the municipal district. The town of Belebey serves as the administrative center of the municipal district as well.
