Farrukhzad I was the Shirvanshah from between 1187–1203 to sometime before 1225. He ruled during a time in Shirvanshah history that scholarship has referred to "a period of total confusion", due to the lack of written records and contradictory numismatic evidence. He was a son of Shirvanshah Manuchihr III (). He had had three brothers, Akhsitan I, Afridun II, and Shahanshah. An inscription from 1203 or 1204 mentions Farrukhzad I as the Shirvanshah. This means that Akhsitan I's reign ended between 1197 and 1203 or 1204.
