The Second Sabri al-Asali government was the fifty-fourth government in the history of modern Syria and the tenth administration of the Second Syrian Republic. Formed on 13 February 1955, it was the eleventh and final government to serve during the second presidency of Hashim al-Atassi and the second government headed by Sabri al-Asali.
The government was established during a period of political transition and was principally tasked with overseeing the presidential election that followed the conclusion of al-Atassi's constitutional term. During its tenure, it supervised the electoral process that resulted in the election of Shukri al-Quwatli to a second term as President of the Republic.
Following the inauguration of President al-Quwatli, the government resigned in accordance with the provisions of the constitution. Its brief administration marked the end of Hashim al-Atassi's second presidency and facilitated the peaceful transfer of power to a new presidential term.
