Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, Achinsky District is one of the forty-three in the krai.[1] The city of Achinsk serves as its administrative center, despite being incorporated separately as a krai city[1]—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[10] The district is divided into nine selsoviets.[1]

As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Achinsky Municipal District and is divided into nine rural settlements (corresponding to the administrative district's selsoviets).[2] The krai city of Achinsk is incorporated separately from the district as Achinsk Urban Okrug.[11]

The Trans-Siberian Railway runs through the district territory from west to east. The Achinsk-Lesosibirsk branch runs in the north and the Achinsk-Abakan branch runs in the south.
