History Its name, Phúc Thọ, has been interpreted as a way of preserving the cultural, historical, and traditional values of the old district.

20th century Phúc Thọ Township (, ) was established in 1994 by the Hà Tây Provincial People's Committee on the basis of merging two communes Phúc Hòa and Thọ Lộc. It has served as the capital of Phúc Thọ rural district for 30 years since then. However, the local authority has been frequently criticized by the press for poor management and even corruption, which has kept the living standards of the common people here the lowest in the whole Hà Tây province.Many former leaders of Phúc Thọ District were proposed to be disciplined (vi)

21st century On June 16, 2025, to meet the urgent needs of the plan to arrange and merge administrative units by the Central Government, the Hanoi City People's Committee has issued a Decision to dissolve all districts in their area. In rural areas, communes have been merged to reduce waste in administrative and economic plannings. According to that policy, Phúc Thọ Commune (, ) was established through the merger of former administrative units, as follows : Phúc Thọ Township and five communes Long Thượng, Phúc Hòa, Phụng Thượng, Tích Lộc, Trạch Mỹ Lộc.Phúc Thọ đạt đồng thuận cao với phương án hợp nhất xã
