It was declared a town in 2004, along with seven other localities in Suceava County. The town administers the former village of Bădeuți (which became a neighborhood in 2004) and Gara and Lunca (with the status of associated villages). Iaslovăț village was also part of Milișăuți until 2002, when it was split off to form a separate commune.
