Ngerulmud is the capital city of Palau, a small island country in the Pacific Ocean. It became the capital in 2006, replacing the previous capital, Melekeok. Ngerulmud is located in the state of Melekeok on Babeldaob, the largest island in Palau. The name Ngerulmud comes from a Palauan phrase meaning "place of fermented angelfish".

Ngerulmud is not a very big city, with a population of just 318 people in the state where it is located.
