List of diplomatic missions of Malaysia

Trade offices and honorary consulates are excluded from this listing.

Malaysia's foreign ministry started in 1956 - a year before the country's independence - when Malaysia's Father of Independence established its offices at the Sultan Abdul Samad Building in Kuala Lumpur.

Then, it was one of only four ministries established by the late Tunku Abdul Rahman.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs started with a staff of eleven British and Australian-trained foreign service officers.

In those early days, the Permanent Mission of Malaysia to the UN in New York also doubled up as the Embassy of Malaysia to the United States.
