M'Batto Department is a department of Moronou Region in Lacs District, Ivory Coast. In 2021, its population was 142,750 and its seat is the settlement of M'Batto. The sub-prefectures of the department are Anoumaba, Assahara, M'Batto, and Tiémélékro.
M'Batto Department was created in 2009 as a second-level subdivision via a split-off from Bongouanou Department.[3] At its creation, it was part of N'Zi-Comoé Region.
In 2011, districts were introduced as new first-level subdivisions of Ivory Coast. At the same time, regions were reorganised and became second-level subdivisions and all departments were converted into third-level subdivisions. At this time, M'Batto Department became part of N'Zi Region in Lacs District. In 2012, it was joined with two other departments to form the new Moronou Region.
