Malaysia–Singapore relations are the bilateral relations between Malaysia and the Republic of Singapore, after the separation of Singapore from Malaysia in 1965. Singapore has a high commission in Kuala Lumpur and a consulate general in Johor Bahru, while Malaysia has a high commission in Singapore. Both countries are full members of the Commonwealth of Nations and ASEAN.

Overall, relations between Malaysia and Singapore are warm and cordial, due to centuries of shared history, close sociocultural similarities, personal connections between the citizens of the two countries, and strong economic ties. There are occasional flareups due to differing political views; however these are often resolved without lasting hostility.
