A thin keyboard command trigger structure includes a circuit board and a frame. The frame is stacked over the circuit board and formed an outer frame, a plurality of inner frames and a plurality of keycaps in an integrated manner. The outer frame has a plurality of holding zones. Each keycap is held in one of the holding zones. The outer frame and the keycap are bridged by one inner frame. Each inner frame has at least two first connecting portions connected to the outer frame and at least two second connecting portions connected to the keycap. Each first connecting portion and each second connecting portion are bridged by a support portion which has a bend spot and can generate deformation when the keycap is moved to the trigger portion. The support portion at the second connecting portion is at an elevation higher than the first connecting portion.
