It was dissolved in February 1976 and land was split amongst three neighboring provinces. Trảng Bàng District was annexed by Tây Ninh province, Củ Chi District was annexed by Ho Chi Minh City, and the districts of Đức Hòa and Đức Huệ were annexed by Long An province. Khiêm Cường, the provincial capital, became the present-day township of Hậu Nghĩa in Đức Hòa District.
