Malaysia competed at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland. This marked Malaysia's 18th participation at the games, after making its debut at the 1950 Commonwealth Games.
The King's Baton relay stopped in Malaysia in November 2025. The Malaysian team consisted of 59 athletes (41 men and 18 women) competing in eight sports. Para-athlete Abdul Latif Romly was the country's flagbearer during the opening ceremony. Meanwhile, bowls athlete Emma Firyana Saroji was the baton bearer during the opening ceremony.
Despite the exclusion of traditional gold mine sports notably badminton, Malaysia recorded its second-highest gold medal count for participation outside the home soil. The eight-gold medal haul was only behind the 2010 edition where the country won twelve. Five of the eight gold medals were contributed by weightlifting , which is also the country's best ever performance in the sport at a single Commonwealth Games.
