History

The High Commission of the Maldives was established in 1995 by upgrading the existing Maldives Government Trade Representative’s Office; it was officially opened by former Maldivian President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom.

This mission had once been called the Embassy of the Maldives in London (Dhivehi: އިނގިރޭސިވިލާތުގައި ހުންނަ ދިވެހިރާއްޖޭގެ އެމްބަސީ) from October 2016, when the Maldives withdrew from the Commonwealth, to February 2020.

The diplomatic mission reverted to being the High Commission of the Maldives on 1 February 2020, when the Maldives rejoined the Commonwealth.
