The second Albanese ministry is the 74th and current ministry of the Government of Australia. It is led by the country's 31st Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. The second Albanese ministry succeeded the first Albanese ministry, following the federal election that took place on 3 May 2025 which saw Labor re-elected for a second term.

As Labor extended their majority in the House of Representatives, Albanese told the media that they "are overflowing with talent." The Guardian commented that with the party making massive gains in Queensland and consolidating its positive position in Victoria, the Prime Minister would have a "welcome headache" having to "manage internal pressure from some Labor members for ministerial promotions."

The ministry was announced on 12 May 2025, and was sworn in the next day.
