Until 18 July 2020, Vasyliv belonged to Zastavna Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Chernivtsi Oblast to three. The area of Zastavna Raion was merged into Chernivtsi Raion.[2][3]
Vasyliv is located near the site of a ruined ancient city of the same name, which was an important Kievan Rus' trading town on the Dniester.[4]
