Obuasi East District is one of the forty-three districts in Ashanti Region, Ghana. Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Obuasi Municipal District on 17 February 2004; until part of the district was split off to create Obuasi East District on 15 March 2018; thus the remaining part has been retained as Obuasi Municipal District. The district assembly is the southern part of Ashanti Region and has Tutuka as its capital town.
