The [[Prime Minister of Thailand|prime minister of Thailand]] ({{langx|th|[[:wikt:นายกรัฐมนตรี|นายกรัฐมนตรี]]}}; {{RTGS|''Nayok Ratthamontri''}}; {{IPA|th|naː.jók rát.tʰà.mon.triː|IPA}}, literally 'chief minister of state') is the [[head of government]] of [[Thailand]]. The prime minister is also the chair of the [[cabinet of Thailand]] and represents the [[Government of Thailand|Royal Thai Government]] at home and the country abroad.

The post of prime minister had existed in some forms throughout the [[history of Thailand]], the most known form was the ''[[List of samuhanayok|Samuhanayok]]'' post. This position emerged during the [[Ayutthaya Kingdom]] as part of the centralization of government.

The modern post of prime minister has existed since the [[Siamese revolution of 1932]] and Siam's first [[Constitution of Thailand|constitution]]. Throughout the post's existence, it has mostly been occupied by [[Royal Thai Armed Forces|military]] leaders from the [[Royal Thai Army]], three holding the rank of [[Field marshal (Thailand)|field marshal]] and seven the rank of [[General officer|general]].

The current prime minister is [[Anutin Charnvirakul]], leader of the [[Bhumjaithai Party]], since 7 September 2025.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2025-09-07 |title=Anutin Charnvirakul takes office as Thailand PM after royal endorsement |url=https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/7/anutin-charnvirakul-takes-office-as-thailand-pm-after-royal-endorsement |access-date=2025-09-13 |work=Al Jazeera |language=en}}</ref>
