List of deputy lieutenants of Wiltshire

This is a list of deputy lieutenants of Wiltshire, England.

Caricature of Lord Henry Frederick Thynne by Leslie Ward, 1877

Unlike the appointment of High Sheriff, which is for one year, the term of office of a Deputy Lieutenant normally lasts until they reach the age of 75.

The Wiltshire Lieutenancy has an establishment of up to 36 deputy lieutenants. They are chosen to reflect a wide range of interests and backgrounds, and can be appointed at any age but tend to be aged over 60; they are normally expected to serve for at least five years before they must retire on reaching the age of 75. Deputy lieutenants can be appointed for a set period of time, but this approach has never been adopted in Wiltshire.

New deputy lieutenants are nominated by the Lord Lieutenant and follow a formal process to confirm their appointment. The Lord-Lieutenant is not obliged to appoint a new Deputy Lieutenant immediately after a current Deputy Lieutenant retires and thus may hold several vacancies.

Retired deputy lieutenants can continue to use the post-nominal letters 'DL' after the date of their retirement.
