The Mission sui iuris of Cunene was a short-lived missionary jurisdiction in present Angola, which was still a Portuguese colony.
The mission sui iuris of Cunene was established in 1881, on territory split off from the then Apostolic Prefecture of Cimbebasia (the remainder of which was on 1 August 1892 renamed as Apostolic Prefecture of Upper Cimbebasia in Portuguese Angola, later Cubango in Angola, then suppressed in 1940).
It was suppressed on 4 September 1940, and its territory merged into the newly erected Roman Catholic Diocese of Nova Lisboa, the nucleus of the present Metropolitan Archdiocese of Huambo.
