History[edit]

Illuka Parish was formed on 13 February 1992.

In 2017, as part of Administrative reform in Estonia, Illuka Parish, along with Alajõe Parish, Iisaku Parish, Mäetaguse Parish and Tudulinna Parish, were merged into a new administrative unit - Alutaguse Parish. Illuka Municipal Council did not do so willingly and disputed the forced merger in Supreme Court of Estonia, but lost the case.
