• The Kosovska Mitrovica District became the District of Mitrovica.
• The Peć District was split into the District of Peja and the District of Gjakova.

• The Kosovo District was split into the District of Pristina and District of Ferizaj.
• The Kosovo-Pomoravlje District was renamed into the District of Gjilan.
  • Additionally, it transferred the municipality of Novo Brdo to the District of Pristina.
• The District of Prizren was reformed as following:
  • it merged the municipalities of Gora and Opolje into the new municipality of Dragash
  • it formed the new municipality Malisheva by taking territories from the municipalities of Rahovec (District of Gjakova), Suva Reka (District of Prizren), Klina (District of Peja) and Drenas (District of Pristina).

Serbia protested the new territorial division and does not see it as legitimate, but by the United Nations Mission in Kosovo administration (UNMIK) implemented it regardless of Serbia's protests, because it has such authority^{[citation needed]} established by virtue of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244.
