Passakorn Suwannawat (born 1 May 1986, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand) is a former Thai professional snooker player.
Suwannawat first turned professional in the 2006/2007 season by winning the 2006 ACBS Asian Under-21 Snooker Championship. He dropped off the main tour after just one season.
Suwannawat reached the final of the 2007 IBSF World Snooker Championship, losing to compatriot Atthasit Mahitthi.
He returned to the main tour in the 2011/2012 season after winning the 2011 ACBS Asian Snooker Championship. Due to being a new player on the tour and therefore unranked he would need to win four qualifying matches to reach the ranking event main draws. He came closest to doing this in the Shanghai Masters where he defeated Adam Duffy, Jimmy Robertson and six-time world champion Steve Davis, before losing in the final round 1–5 to Stephen Lee.
Suwannawat played in 11 of the 12 PTC events throughout the season, with his best finish coming in Event 4 where he beat former world champions Mark Williams and Ken Doherty to reach the quarter-finals before losing to Neil Robertson. This performance largely contributed to him being placed 54 on the PTC Order of Merit, outside of the top 24 who qualified for the Finals. However, his results were good enough to earn him a place on the main tour for the 2012/2013 season. Suwannawat finished the season ranked number 74 in the world.
