This is a list of leaders of post-1796, independent New Netherland. For a list of colonial leaders, see the list of Director-Generals.

Since New Netherland's Autumn War of the late 18th century, the colonial leadership position of Director-General was replaced with the office of the Stadtholder, modeled after that of the pre-Augustine United Provinces. They were appointed by the Patroon Council, a body of the country's elites and landowners. The Republican Revolution in 1903 ushered in democracy, ousting the Stadtholder and installing the Grand Pensionary (Amerikaens: Raedpensionaris) as the popularly elected head of state of the nation.

Director–Generals: 1624–1796
