History
On February 24, 1976, the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam issued a Decree on the dissolution of districts and the merger of provinces in South Vietnam. Accordingly, Đồng Nai province was established based on the natural area and population size of Phước Tuy, Biên Hoà, and Long Khánh provinces. At that time, Phước Bửu commune belonged to Xuyên Mộc district, Đồng Nai Province. Simultaneously, the commune was also the district capital. Hồ Tràm then was just a village of Phước Bửu.
On January 17, 1984, the Council of Ministers issued Decision 12-HĐBT on the demarcation of boundaries of some communes, towns, and wards in Đồng Nai province. Accordingly:
Established Phước Tân commune based on the natural area and population size of the hamlets of Thạnh Sơn 4, Thạnh Sơn 3, Việt Kiều, Bà Rịa, Tân Phú and part of Gò Cát of Phước Bửu.
After the adjustments, Phước Bửu commune retains the natural area and population size of the hamlets of Xóm Rẫy, Gò Cà, Thanh Sơn 1A, Thanh Sơn 1B, Xim, and part of Gò Cát.
At that time, Phước Bửu commune was the district capital of the Xuyên Mộc district, Đồng Nai province.
On August 12, 1991, the National Assembly issued a Resolution on the adjustment of administrative boundaries of some provinces and centrally-administered cities. Accordingly:
