Bayezid Osman (Ottoman Turkish: بایزید عثمان; born 23 June 1924) also known as Osman Bayazid Osmanoğlu with a surname as required by the Turkish Republic, or known by the Ottoman imperial name as Prince Şehzade Bayezid Efendi, is the 44th Head of the Imperial House of Osman, which ruled the Ottoman Empire from 1281 to 1922.
