The Apostolic Nunciature to Mali is the diplomatic mission of the Holy See to Mali. The Apostolic Nuncio to Mali is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Mali, with the rank of an ambassador. The nuncio serves both as the ambassador of the Holy See to the Republic of Mali and as the point-of-contact between the Catholic hierarchy in Mali and the pope.

Since 2008, the post of Nuncio to Mali has been held by the archbishop who is Nuncio to Guinea; the Nuncio to Mali resides in Conakry, Guinea.

In 1948, the Holy See established the Delegation to Dakar led by Marcel-François Lefebvre[1] to represent its interests in French colonial Africa. Following the decolonization of the region, the title of that position was changed to Apostolic Delegate to Western Africa on 23 September 1960 and given responsibility for Senegal, Upper Volta, Cote d'Ivoire, Dahomey (Benin), Guinea, Mauritania, Niger, Sudan, Togo, Ghana, Gambia, and Sierra Leone.[2] Over the next decade, as the Vatican established relationships with individual countries, country-specific offices were created, including the Delegations to Guinea, Togo, Mali, and Mauritania on 21 May 1973.[3]
