Kuala Lumpur
The British High Commission in Malaysia maintains and develops relations between the UK and Malaysia.
We represent the British government in its relations with the Malaysian government and present British policies to the Malaysian government and to Malaysians. We report and explain Malaysian policies to the British government and support British interests as well as coordinating the political, economic, environmental and commercial activities of the British government.
With nearly 16,000 Britons living in Malaysia and over 401,000 visiting every year, the High Commission supports British nationals if they need assistance.
Find out more on our UK and Malaysia news page. We provide services to British nationals living in and visiting Malaysia. You can access UK government services while in Malaysia.

Other consular services
Notarial and documentary services
The British High Commission in Kuala Lumpur cannot provide notarial services as British consular officers in Commonwealth countries have no legal powers under the Commissioners for Oaths Act 1889 to undertake notarial acts, administer oaths or take affidavits which will be effectual in the United Kingdom.
This includes certifying documents as true copies of originals. For these or other notarial acts, you should contact a local notary.
Although we have formally notified the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that we do not provide these services, some government departments or local authority offices often insist on a letter from the High Commission before administering a service.
If required, we provide a limited range of standard letters that can be downloaded for free. See the list of documentary services we provide.
