Klavdiievo-Tarasove was founded in 1903 as a village, and it retained its village status until it was upgraded to that of an urban-type settlement in 1938.

The village of Klavdiievo was founded in 1903. Its emergence is associated with the start of construction of the Kyiv–Kovel railway. In 1900, construction work began simultaneously on all sections of the railway line. In 1902, the 45th verst crossing the future Klavdiieve station was built, to which a single-track line led. In 1908, after construction of the second track on the railway, as well as the opening of stations, the 39th verst and the 45th verst crossings were renamed Nemishayeve-I and Nemishayeve-II stations, respectively, in honor of the chief of the South-Western Railway Klavdii Nemishaev. With the expansion of postal and freight traffic, the inevitable confusion forced in 1913 to rename the station Nemishayeve-II to Klavdiievo station.

In 1910, the hunting lodge of the Prime Minister of the Russian Empire Pyotr Stolypin was built in Klavdiievo.

After the October revolution, the new government decided to erase the name of the tsar's minister from the names of the stations – Nemishayeve and Klavdiieve were renamed Shevchenkove station and Tarasove station, respectively. But the People's Commissariat did not approve the new names, and the old ones were returned to the stations. However, they decided to keep the name Tarasove for the village – so Klavdiievo-Tarasove appeared on the map.

The grave of Otaman Orlyk's insurgents and the Bolsheviks from 1921 has been preserved in the village.

In 1926, the village had 155 households, 176 estates, and 730 people.

In 1942–1943 an shadow organization headed by I.O. Polyakov operated here. In July 1943, the 1st Borodyansk partisan detachment was formed in the forests near Klavdiievo-Tarasove, to which the locals provided great assistance. Partisan M.P. Makiychuk was killed in battles against the Nazis in the village. Now the stop at 53 km of the railway is called Makiychukove. 1,053 inhabitants of this village took part in the German-Soviet war; almost all of them were awarded orders and medals of the USSR.

Until 18 July 2020, Klavdiievo-Tarasove belonged to Borodianka Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Borodianka Raion was merged into Bucha Raion.

The settlement was occupied by Russian troops for a time during the Kyiv Offensive of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Ukraine (Україна, ) is a country in Eastern Europe. It is the second-largest European country after Russia, which it borders to the east and northeast. Ukraine covers approximately 600000 km2. Prior to the ongoing Russian invasion, it was the eighth-most populous country in Europe, with a population of around 41 million people. It is also bordered by Belarus to the north; by Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary to the west; and by Romania and Moldova to the southwest; with a coastline along the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov to the south and southeast. Kyiv is the nation's capital and largest city. Ukraine's state language is Ukrainian; Russian is also widely spoken, especially in the east and south.

During the Middle Ages, Ukraine was the site of early Slavic expansion and the area later became a key centre of East Slavic culture under the state of Kievan Rus', which emerged in the 9th century. The state eventually disintegrated into rival regional powers and was ultimately destroyed by the Mongol invasions of the 13th century. The area was then contested, divided, and ruled by a variety of external powers for the next 600 years, including the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Austrian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Tsardom of Russia. The Cossack Hetmanate emerged in central Ukraine in the 17th century, but was partitioned between Russia and Poland, and ultimately absorbed by the Russian Empire. Ukrainian nationalism developed, and following the Russian Revolution in 1917, the short-lived Ukrainian People's Republic was formed. The Bolsheviks consolidated control over much of the former empire and established the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, which became a constituent republic of the Soviet Union when it was formed in 1922. In the early 1930s, millions of Ukrainians died in the Holodomor, a man-made famine. During World War II, Ukraine was devastated by the German occupation.
