The Chakri dynasty{{efn|{{langx|th|ราชวงศ์จักรี}}, {{RTGS|Ratchawong Chakkri}}, {{IPA|th|râːt.tɕʰā.wōŋ tɕàk.krīː|pron|Chakri dynasty (TH).ogg}}}} is the current reigning dynasty of the Kingdom of Thailand. The head of the house is the king, who is head of state. The family has ruled Thailand since the founding of the Rattanakosin era and the city of Bangkok in 1782; following the end of Taksin's reign, when the capital of Siam shifted to Bangkok. The royal house was founded by Rama I, an Ayutthaya military leader of Sino-Mon descent.{{cite book|last1=Reid|first1=Anthony|title=A History of Southeast Asia: Critical Crossroads|year=2015|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cETJBgAAQBAJ&dq=chakri+dynasty+chinese+mon&pg=PA215|page=215|publisher=John Wiley & Sons |isbn=9780631179610|access-date=28 November 2021|archive-date=6 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230206051711/https://books.google.com/books?id=cETJBgAAQBAJ&dq=chakri+dynasty+chinese+mon&pg=PA215|url-status=live}}
Prior to his accession to the throne, Rama I held for years the title Chakri, the civil chancellor. In founding the dynasty, the king himself chose "Chakri" as the name for it. The emblem of the house is composed of the discus (Chakra) and the trident (Trishula), the celestial weapons of the gods Vishnu and Shiva, of whom the Thai sovereign is seen as an incarnation.
The current head of the house is Vajiralongkorn who was proclaimed king on 1 December 2016, but has reigned with retroactive effect since 13 October 2016 after the death of his father Bhumibol Adulyadej. The house's current seat is the Grand Palace. On Saturday, 4 May 2019, the coronation of Vajiralongkorn, with the traditional ceremony, occurred in Bangkok.{{cite web | url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/may/04/thailands-king-vajiralongkorn-is-crowned-as-three-day-coronation-begins | title=King Vajiralongkorn of Thailand is crowned in elaborate ceremony | website=theguardian.com | date=4 May 2019 | access-date=10 May 2019 | archive-date=12 August 2020 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200812174414/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/may/04/thailands-king-vajiralongkorn-is-crowned-as-three-day-coronation-begins | url-status=live }}

The present royal family of Thailand belongs to the House of Mahidol ({{langx|th|ราชสกุลมหิดล}}; {{rtgs|Ratchasakun Mahidon}}), a cadet branch of the Chakri dynasty. The House was founded by Prince Mahidol Adulyadej (1891–1929) and Princess Srinagarindra (1900–1995). The Prince was a son of King Chulalongkorn and his wife Queen Savang Vadhana. The Prince was also the half-brother of both King Vajiravudh and King Prajadhipok. After the death of King Ananda Mahidol (Prince Mahidol's elder son), King Bhumibol Adulyadej (the Prince's younger son) ascended the throne in 1946. In 1949 the King married his first cousin once removed, Mom Rajawongse Sirikit Kitiyakara (a daughter of Mom Chao Nakkhatra Mangala Kitiyakara, a grandson of King Chulalongkorn). Bhumibol was succeeded by his son Vajiralongkorn officially on 13 October 2016, but was proclaimed King on 1 December 2016.

The Maha Uparat (มหาอุปราช) or the Krom Phrarajawang Boworn Sathan Mongkol (Vice or Second King of Siam/Viceroy of Siam) (กรมพระราชวังบวรสถานมงคล) was an office that was bestowed on the highest ranking prince, frequently the monarch's younger brother or son. Until 1885 every Chakri monarch had appointed a prince to this office. The Uprarat and his miniature court would reside at the Front Palace (วังหน้า) (a palace complex to the north of the Grand Palace, now the site of the Bangkok National Museum). By tradition the Uparat was designated the heir to the throne, however only Prince Itsarasunthon was able to ascend the throne as King Phutthaloetla Naphalai. The office was extremely prestigious and carried with it almost equal status to the king, this can be seen in Prince Chutamani (younger brother of King Mongkut), who was elevated to Vice King Pinklao in 1851 (he carried with him the styles and titles of a King). The office was abolished by King Chulalongkorn when his Uparat and cousin Prince Wichaichan died. He then declared his oldest son the crown prince of Siam, but not Uparat.{{cite book | last= Terwiel | first= B.J. | url= https://books.google.com/books?id=81OQuAAACAAJ | title= Thailand's Political History: From the 13th Century to Recent Times | publisher= River Books | year= 2011 | location= Thailand | isbn= 978-9749863961 | page= 39 | access-date= 28 November 2021 | archive-date= 6 February 2023 | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230206051711/https://books.google.com/books?id=81OQuAAACAAJ | url-status= live }}

=Rear Palace=
Krom Phrarajawang Boworn Sathan Phimuk (กรมพระราชวังบวรสถานพิมุข), or the Rear Palace, was another office inherited from the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. However, since the founding of the dynasty there has only been one rear palace. Prince Anurak Devesh was the nephew of King Phutthayotfa Chualok (his mother Princess Thepsuthavadi was the king's elder sister) and was appointed to the office in 1785.

=Crown Princes=
{{Main|Crown Prince of Thailand}}
The Crown Prince of Thailand or Sayam Makutrajakuman (สยามมกุฎราชกุมาร) is the designated and heir apparent to the throne and headship of the dynasty. The title was created in 1886 when King Chulalongkorn appointed his eldest son by Princess Consort Savang Vadhana, Prince Vajirunhis as Sayam Makutrajakuman. The title was copied directly from the Western tradition. Since then, there have only been three crown princes. The most recent crown prince, Maha Vajiralongkorn, was invested with the title in 1972 and became King in 2016. The succession is governed by the 1924 Palace Law of Succession passed by King Vajiravudh.
