History
Tiassalé Department was created in 1988 as a first-level subdivision via a split-off from Abidjan Department.

In 1997, regions were introduced as new first-level subdivisions of Ivory Coast; as a result, all departments were converted into second-level subdivisions. Tiassalé Department was included in Lagunes Region.

In 2011, districts were introduced as new first-level subdivisions of Ivory Coast. At the same time, regions were reorganised and became second-level subdivisions and all departments were converted into third-level subdivisions. At this time, Tiassalé Department became part of Agnéby-Tiassa Region in Lagunes District.

In 2012, two sub-prefectures were split from Tiassalé Department to create Taabo Department.
