History
Legislature term	HoR 26th: 2023–2025
Predecessor	Paetongtarn cabinet
Successor	Second Anutin cabinet

The First Anutin cabinet, formally known as the 65th Council of Ministers,^[c] was formed after the removal of Paetongtarn Shinawatra as Prime Minister of Thailand.^[1]^[2] The coalition is led by the Bhumjaithai Party, which nominated Anutin Charnvirakul as its candidate for prime minister.^[3] Anutin's candidacy was supported by the People's Party, but the party remains in opposition and does not have ministers in the cabinet.^[3]^[4]

In forming the government, the Bhumjaithai Party led a coalition of eight political parties, winning a total of 146 seats in the Thai House of Representatives. The party nominated its leader, Anutin Charnvirakul, as Thailand's 32nd Prime Minister. Although the People's Party supported the appointment of the Prime Minister, it chose not to join the government, instead serving in opposition alongside the Pheu Thai Party and some of its former coalition partners. This marked the first minority government in Thailand in 50 years, since the Second Seni cabinet.

History

Anutin was elected as prime minister on 5 September 2025 and received the appointment from the royal command on 7 September 2025.

The cabinet was officially sworn into office by King Vajiralongkorn on 24 September 2025.
