The UK Singles Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling singles of the week in the United Kingdom.[1] Before 2004, the chart was only based on the sales of physical singles.[2][3] This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 1992, as well as singles which peaked in 1991 and 1993 but were in the top 10 in 1992. The entry date is when the single appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).

One-hundred and forty-five singles were in the top ten in 1992. Ten singles from 1991 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while "Could It Be Magic" by Take That was released in 1992 but did not reach its peak until 1993. "Addams Groove" by MC Hammer, "Don't Talk Just Kiss" by Right Said Fred, "Justified & Ancient" by The KLF featuring Tammy Wynette, "Roobarb and Custard" by Shaft and "Too Blind to See It" by Kym Sims were the singles from 1991 to reach their peak in 1992. Twenty-seven artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 1992. Celine Dion, East 17, Kris Kross, Manic Street Preachers and Take That were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 1992.

The 1991 Christmas number-one, "Bohemian Rhapsody"/"These Are the Days of Our Lives" by Queen, remained at number-one for the first three weeks of 1992. The first new number-one single of the year was "Goodnight Girl" by Wet Wet Wet. Overall, twelve different singles peaked at number-one in 1992, with twelve unique artists having singles hit that position.
