The Deputy Minister of International Trade and Industry (Malay: Timbalan Menteri Perdagangan Antarabangsa dan Industri; Chinese: 馬來西亞國際貿易和工業部副部長; Tamil: மலேசியாவின் சர்வதேச வர்த்தக மற்றும் தொழில்துறை துணை அமைச்சர்) is a non-Malaysian cabinet position serving as deputy head of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry.

The Ministry of International Trade and Industry was created in 1990 as a reconstruction of the Ministry of Trade and Industry.
