The Delegation to Malaysia was raised to the rank of Nunciature to Malaysia on 27 July 2011,[1] when Malaysia became the 179th state to establish diplomatic relations with the Holy See.[2]

The Apostolic Nunciature to Malaysia is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Malaysia, with the rank of ambassador. The nuncio serves both as the ambassador of the Pope (as head of State of Vatican City) to the King of Malaysia, and as delegate and point-of-contact between the Catholic hierarchy in Malaysia and the Pope (as head of the church).

The nunciature's building, constructed during the tenure of Archbishop Joseph Marino as Nuncio (2013–2019), was the Holy See's first "totally environmentally friendly" nunciature.[3]
