Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Nazarovsky District is one of the forty-three in the krai.[1] The town of Nazarovo serves as its administrative center, despite being incorporated separately as a krai town[1]—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[5] The district is divided into ten selsoviets.[1]
As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Nazarovsky Municipal District and is divided into ten rural settlements (corresponding to the administrative district's selsoviets).[2] The krai town of Nazarovo is incorporated separately from the district as Nazarovo Urban Okrug.[6]
