The Syrian Interim Government (Arabic: الحكومة السورية المؤقتة; Ḥukūmat as-Sūriyya al-Muwaqqata)[a] was a government-in-exile and later a quasi-state in Syria formed on 18 March 2013 by the National Coalition of Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces (Syrian National Coalition, SNC), an umbrella opposition group, during the Syrian civil war. The Syrian Interim Government constituted a separate administration in the Turkish-controlled territories in northern Syria and had partial authority there. The interim government's headquarters in Syria were located in the city of Azaz in Aleppo Governorate.[3][4] While responsible to the Syrian National Coalition, the SIG was closely aligned with Turkey. The SIG's armed forces were the Syrian National Army (SNA).
After the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024, the SIG coexisted for a short period of time with the Syrian caretaker government headed by Mohammed al-Bashir in Damascus, while the SNC expressed its support for the caretaker government and called for the formation of a government that would be "inclusive of everyone."[5] On 30 January 2025, the SIG officially "placed itself at the disposal" of the caretaker government,[6][7] which began deploying its forces across former SIG territory in early February 2025.[8]
