Balta Raion (Ukrainian : Балтський район, Balts'kyi raion) was a raion of Odesa Oblast in southwestern Ukraine.

Balta Raion was divided in a way that followed the general administrative scheme in Ukraine. Local government was also organized along a similar scheme nationwide. Consequently, raions were subdivided into councils, which were the prime level of administrative division in the country.
Each of the raion's urban localities administered their own councils, often containing a few other villages within its jurisdiction. However, only a handful of rural localities were organized into councils, which also might contain a few villages within its jurisdiction.
Accordingly, until 2016 Balta Raion was divided into: [4]
Overall, the raion had a total of 42 populated localities, consisting of one city, and 41 villages. [4]
