This article contains the list of chairmen of the State Great Khural of Mongolia.
The post of Chairman of the State Great Khural officially existed in Mongolia twice. First time in the Bogd Khanate of Mongolia from 1914 to 1919, as the Chairman of the State Upper Khural, during which the post was only held by Prime Minister Tögs-Ochiryn Namnansüren. The second time, in Mongolia since 1992, after the establishment of a unicameral State Great Khural.
Between 1924 and 1990, the legislatures of the Mongolian People's Republic (MPR) were effectively rubber-stamp with most functions exercised by its presidium, which met inbetween sessions of the legislature, or respective ministries of the Council of Ministers. From 1924 to 1951, the MPR had a bicameral legislature, the Great Khural and the Little Khural. The People's Great Khural, the supreme state organ of power, was similarly a rubber-stamp legislature with a presidium from 1951 until September 1990, when the legislature created the presidency and a standing legislature, the Little Khural. With main legislative powers vested in the Little Khural, the chairman of the State Little Khural is considered by the modern parliament of Mongolia as its predecessor position.
Currently, the post is held by Sandagiin Byambatsogt since 3 April 2026.
