The British High Commission in Papua New Guinea maintains and develops relations between the UK and Papua New Guinea.

Papua New Guinea and the UK enjoy good relations as historic partners and allies. Both are outward looking Commonwealth nations committed to democracy, trade and investment, and support for the United Nations.

We develop our historic bilateral relationship further by focusing on several main areas of co-operation:

  • working with the Papua New Guinea (PNG) government on issues of common concern, such as good governance, human rights issues, with a particular focus on women’s rights and climate change
  • working with PNG to strengthen effectiveness of the Commonwealth
  • maximising commercial opportunities for British business

Find out more on our UK and Papua New Guinea news page. We provide services to British nationals living in and visiting Papua New Guinea. You can access UK government services while in Papua New Guinea.
