Merysekhmet (also written Merysakhmet) was a Vizier of Ancient Egypt. He served during the reign of Merenptah.[1]

Merysekhmet is mentioned in Papyrus Bologna 1086, which is a letter form the scribe of the offering table Bakenkhons to his father Ramose who is a prophet of the temple of Thoth in Memphis. The letter is in regards to the whereabouts of a Syrian slave named Nekedy. Bakenkhons mentions meeting with vizier Merysakhmet and asking if Nekedy was with him, and being told no.[2]
