Selim III Giray (1713-1786) was Khan of Crimea from 1765 to 1767 (succeeding Qirim Giray and preceding Arslan Giray) and from 1770 to 1771 (succeeding Qaplan II Giray and preceding Sahib II Giray). A son of Fetih II Giray, he was deposed twice, the second time due to failures in the Russo-Turkish War of 1768-1774. He died in Vize, Turkey in 1786.
