The Syrian transitional government (ٱلحُكُوَمَة ٱلانتِقَالِيَّة ٱلسُّورِيَّة, romanized: al-Ḥukūmah al-Intiqāliyyah as-Sūriyyah) is the incumbent transitional government of Syria. It was established in December 2024 by the Syrian opposition after Ahmed al-Sharaa, then emir of Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham and de facto Syrian head of state, appointed Mohammed al-Bashir as prime minister, replacing Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali on 10 December. This came after the fall of the Assad regime and the exile of former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

On 8 December 2024, hours after the fall of Damascus, Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali, the outgoing prime minister and last head of government of the Ba'athist regime, agreed to lead the provisional government in a caretaking capacity.[2] He then transferred power to Mohammed al-Bashir, prime minister of the Syrian Salvation Government, two days later.[3] On 10 December, the transitional administration announced that it would remain in place until 1 March 2025, with all ministers from the Syrian Salvation Government taking up their same posts in the new transitional government.[4] On 29 January 2025, Ahmed al-Sharaa was named the president of the transitional period. Sharaa stated that as president, he would form an interim legislative council to help govern until a new constitution was approved.[5]
