Trimön Shap-pe (c.1874 - 1945) was a noted Tibetan conservative politician and governor.

In 1912, Trimön was assigned to a post as Assistant Commanders-in-Chief of the Tibetan army during the Chinese conflict at Lhasa. In June of that year he was given the title of Theiji. [1]

Throughout the 1920s Trimön worked as the Commissioner in Eastern Tibet. His position ended in 1931 when Nga-pho Shap-pe was brought in to resume his role.
