A Klingon civilian transport ship was a type of civilian transport, utilized in the Klingon Empire during the late 24th century.

In 2372, a ship of this type crashed in a mountainous region on Galorda Prime and all 440 people aboard were killed.

Three months later, another civilian transport was used in a failed plot by the Empire to frame Lieutenant Commander Worf and extradite him to Qo'noS.

In the ploy, the ship, while under cloak, had apparently blundered into a battle between the USS Defiant, a Klingon Bird-of-Prey, and a K't'inga-class battle cruiser. The transport decloaked in front of the Defiant just as Worf ordered the firing of quantum torpedoes, accidentally destroying it.

Though the transport was empty, the Klingons faked its life signs and submitted into evidence the passenger list of the transport that had crashed on Galorda months earlier. (DS9: "Rules of Engagement")

The Klingon civilian transport was a repainted reuse of the Merchantman model from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. For more information on history of this studio model, please see: Studio models.
