Pohrebyshche Raion (Ukrainian: Погребищенський район|Pohrebyschens'kyi raion) was a raion (district) of Vinnytsia Oblast in west-central Ukraine. The administrative center of the district was the town of Pohrebyshche.

The Ros River finds its source in the village of Ordyntsi, formerly in Pohrebyshche Raion.
