Until 18 July 2020, Mala Berezovytsia belonged to Zbarazh Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Ternopil Oblast to three. The area of Zbarazh Raion was split between Kremenets and Ternopil Raions, with Mala Berezovytsia being transferred to Ternopil Raion.[4][5]
