Syamsul Bachri Chaeruddin (born 9 February 1983) is an Indonesian former footballer who played as a midfielder for the Indonesia national football team.

Born in Gowa, South Sulawesi, Syamsul played for PSM Makassar in the 2005 AFC Champions League group stage, where he scored one goal.

Syamsul is one of the best defensive midfielders in his country with his aggression and a courageous playing style, despite his small stature. He made his international debut for the national team in the 0–0 drew in a friendly match against Malaysia on 12 March 2004. At the Asian Cup 2007 he played 3 times: in a 2–1 win against Bahrain (as substitute for Mahyadi Panggabean, who was injured); in a 1–2 loss against Saudi Arabia, and in a 0–1 loss to South Korea, the last game in Group D.
