President of Mongolia

The **President of Mongolia** (, _Mongol Ulsyn Yerönkhiilögch_) is the Executive Head of state of Mongolia.

The current incumbent is Ukhnaagiin Khürelsükh.

The Constitution of Mongolia adopted in 1992 states that the President of Mongolia is the "head of state and embodiment of the unity of the Mongolian people".

Mongolia declared its independence from the Qing dynasty in 1911, under the Bogd Khan (the 8th Jebtsundamba Khutuktu). From 1911 to 1924, the head of state of Mongolia was nominally the Bogd Khan. During 1924 to 1992, during the Mongolian People's Republic, the official title of the head of state underwent several changes, including **Chairman of the State Great Khural**, **Chairman of the Presidium of the State Little Khural**, **Chairman of the Presidium of the State Great Khural**, and finally, **Chairman of the Presidium of the People's Great Khural**.
