The First Ishiba Cabinet was the 102nd Cabinet of Japan, formed by Shigeru Ishiba on 1 October 2024, following the resignation of Fumio Kishida after the Liberal Democratic Party presidential election on 27 September 2024. It has 20 members, including two women.[1] The government was a coalition between the Liberal Democratic Party and the Komeito who controlled both the upper and lower houses of the National Diet.

After just 41 days it was replaced by the Second Ishiba Cabinet following the 2024 election, making it the second shortest-serving cabinet in Japanese history, after the First Kishida Cabinet.[2]
