The office is an appointed position, with officeholders being appointed by the president of Ukraine on recommendation from the prime minister of Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian Constitution she/he should resign after a new president is elected.[1] Due to the 2014 Russian aggression against Ukraine and Russian occupation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, it makes it impossible to appoint new state administration.

The official residence for the governor is located in Sevastopol.

The post was created in 1992 as the Presidential representative in Sevastopol, and the first appointee was Ivan Yermakov who previously headed the city's council and its executive committee. Post of the Sevastopol city governor existed previously in the Russian Empire in 1872–1920. During the Soviet period, the city was governed by the First Secretary of the city's committee of the Communist Party, which was dissolved in Ukraine due to the 1991 August putsch. Due to the 2014 Crimean crisis and annexation of Crimea, the post was abolished. The last appointed head of the Sevastopol City State Administration was Volodymyr Yatsuba, who resigned in 2014.
