History

Until 18 July 2020, Piskivka belonged to Borodianka Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Borodianka Raion was merged into Bucha Raion.[3] [4]

Until 26 January 2024, Piskivka was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Piskivka became a rural settlement.[5]
