The Cabinet of Prime Minister Tihomir Orešković is the government cabinet of Croatia formed on 22 January 2016. It is the 13th cabinet of Croatia, formed following the November 2015 election. The negotiation process leading to its formation is the longest in Croatian history, totaling at a record 76 days.

It is the first Croatian cabinet to be headed by a non-partisan Prime Minister. Cabinet members came from two parties: the Croatian Democratic Union and Bridge of Independent Lists.

The Orešković cabinet is also known as Tim's Team.[1]

The first change in the cabinet occurred just 6 days into its mandate when Minister of Veterans' Affairs Mijo Crnoja resigned on 28 January 2016, due to controversy over his place of residence and several other affairs. He became the shortest serving government minister in Croatian history.[2] After his resignation, Vesna Nađ who had served as Deputy Minister of Veterans' Affairs in the Cabinet of Zoran Milanović became interim minister, creating the situation where a member of the opposition centre-left Social Democratic Party held office in a government led by the centre-right.[3]
