Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Ruilin Ren:

The Cote D'Ivoire DHS 1999 has a special variable SHDEPT which defines the 58 Departments of the country with names of the Departments given, but did not give an identifier for the administrative regions. The variable HV024 in the 1999 DHS did not identify the administrative regions, it actually identifies the capital city "Abidjan", the "Other urban" areas, and the rural areas. So the capital city "Abidjan" in both 1999 (HV024=0) and 2012 (HV024=11) are identified. The attached table shows the link of SHDEPT in 1999 DHS with HV024 in 2012 DHS. So you can identify the regions in the 1999 DHS, but you cannot identify the Departments in the 2012 DHS.
