Kpone-Katamanso Municipal District is one of the twenty-nine districts in Greater Accra Region, Ghana.[2][3][4][5] Originally it was part of the then-larger Tema Municipal District, which was created from the former Tema District Council, until the eastern portion of the district was split off to create Kpone-Katamanso District on 28 June 2012, which was established by Legislative Instrument (L.I.) 2031; thus the remaining part has been retained as Tema Metropolitan Assembly. However on 15 March 2018, it was later elevated to municipal district assembly status to become Kpone-Katamanso Municipal District, which was established by Legislative Instrument (L.I.) 2271. The municipality is located in the central part of Greater Accra Region and has Kpone as its capital town.
In November 2024, the status of the Kpone Katamanso Municipal Assembly was elevated to a metropolitan assembly. It is now Kpone Katamanso Metropolitan Assembly.
