The Government of Mongolia (Mongolian: Монгол Улсын Засгийн газар, romanizedMongol Ulsyn Zasgiin gazar) is the highest executive body and national cabinet of Mongolia. It consists of the Prime Minister of Mongolia and other cabinet ministers. The prime minister is designated by the State Great Khural, the unicameral parliament of Mongolia, and the remaining members are appointed and dismissed by the prime minister upon approval of the parliament.

The fundamentals of the government's organisation, as well as the method of its election and appointment, along with the procedure for its dismissal, are set down in the third chapter (articles 38 to 46) of the Constitution of Mongolia and Law of Mongolia on the Government of Mongolia.

The government is collectively responsible to the State Great Khural and must resign if a motion of no confidence is adopted by the State Great Khural. The State Great Khural determines the structure and composition of the government by submission of the prime minister. The government is one of the three subjects in Mongolia that have the right to initiate laws.
