Greek Autonomous District ({{langx|ru|Греческий автономный район|Grechesky avtonomnyy rayon}}, {{langx|el|Ελληνική Αυτόνομη Επαρχία|Ellēnikḗ Aftónomē Eparchía}}) was a national district created according to the policy national delimitation in the Soviet Union. It was established on 27 February 1930 by the decree of the Azov-Black Sea Krai ispolkom, with the capital in stanitsa Krymskaya (now the town of Krymsk). In 1932 the capital was moved to stanitsa Nizhne-Bakanskaya. It was the only one district of republican subordination (i.e., subordinated directly to a Soviet republic, rather than to an intermediate-level administrative entity). This Greek autonomy in the Soviet Union existed until 6 March 1939, when it was disbanded and the administrative entity renamed to Krymsky District by the decree of Krasnodar Krai kraikom of the All-Russian Communist Party,{{Cite news |date=5 May 2008 |title=Репрессии в 1930-1950 гг. по отношению к грекам СССР |url=http://www.greek.ru/news/diaspora/31749/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230422010722/http://www.greek.ru/news/diaspora/31749/ |archive-date=22 April 2023}} by the end of the first wave of the Soviet repression against ethnic Greeks.
