Maldives ambassador to Malaysia

The Maldives High Commission is a diplomatic mission in Kuala Lumpur led by Mariyam Shabeena Ahmed, handling bilateral relations and coordination between the two countries. It manages trade matters, official cooperation, and provides services to Maldivian citizens in Malaysia.

The diplomatic mission changed from an embassy to a high commission when the Maldives rejoined the Commonwealth in 2020. This shift reflected an update to the country's official diplomatic standing internationally.

The High Commission hosts events like Independence Day and Ramadan celebrations for Maldivian students and residents living in Malaysia. These gatherings create a space where the community shares traditions and maintains connections to home.

The High Commission provides support services and assistance to Maldivian citizens living or working in Malaysia. Visitors should check opening times and any requirements for services before making a visit.

The High Commission publishes monthly newsletters documenting activities, events, and updates for the Maldivian community. These bulletins keep residents informed about news and opportunities within their community in Malaysia.
