Sejdo Bajramović ({{Langx|sq|Sejdo Bajramoviq}} or Bajrami; {{Lang-sr-cyr|Сејдо Бајрамовић

}}; 7 July 1927 – 1993) was a Yugoslav soldier and politician of the former Yugoslavia, who was the acting head of state of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia for a brief time in 1991.

Born in Kosovska Kamenica, Bajramović was elected as member of the presidency representing Kosovo, when the Serbian president Slobodan Milošević out-manoeuvred the incumbent Riza Sapunxhiu, through a recall by the Serbian Parliament. In the same move, he also became acting head of state (coordinator of the presidency of Yugoslavia, as Milošević initially refused to accept the President-designate Stipe Mesić, representing Croatia, and unilaterally declared the presidency incapable of functioning.{{cn|date=May 2025}}

As the provincial legislature of Kosovo was suspended, Bajramović was appointed as presidency member by the Assembly of the Republic of Serbia. Delegates from Slovenia and Croatia as well as Kosovo Albanian delegates protested his appointment as illegitimate and anti-constitutional given the dissolvement of the assembly.{{cite book |last1=Mertus |first1=Julie |title=Kosovo: How Myths and Truths Started a War |date=1999 |publisher=University of California Press |isbn=9780520218659 |page=299 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=J7AwDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA299}} In his Kosovo constituency, he had been elected with only 0.03% of the vote (ethnic Albanians boycotted the Serbian elections).
