The Berov Government was the 83rd cabinet of Bulgaria. It was approved by the parliament on 30 December 1994 with the majority of DPS, BSP and a faction of SDS. With a few exceptions, the government consisted of non-party members, including Prime Minister Lyuben Berov himself, who were considered experts in their respective field.

The government eventually collapsed on 17 October 1994, when Prime Minister Berov resigned due to the GDP shrinking by roughly 24% in comparison to 1989, unemployment skyrocketing to 20%, crime rate hitting a record high and various other factors.
