Brief History

When Malaysia (then Malaya) applied to join the United Nations in 1957, the Netherlands was one of the countries that voted “yes” during the roll call for the admission of new members, making it possible for the Federation of Malaya to become the 82nd the member of the United Nations. Although the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries started in that same year, Malaysia only established its resident Embassy in The Hague in September 1966. It moved to its permanent building at Rustenburgweg in the summer of 1985.

Agencies under the Embassy

In addition to the Chancery building in Rustenburgweg, there are three Malaysian agencies which operate as part of the Embassy:

  • The Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE), located in Rotterdam
  • Culture / Tourism Office, located in the city centre in The Hague
  • Agriculture Office, located in Rotterdam
