The High Commissioner from New Zealand to the Solomon Islands is New Zealand's foremost diplomatic representative in the Solomon Islands, and in charge of New Zealand's diplomatic mission in the Solomon Islands.
The High Commission is located in Honiara, the Solomon Islands' capital city. New Zealand has maintained a resident High Commissioner in the Solomon Islands since 1978.
As fellow members of the Commonwealth of Nations, diplomatic relations between New Zealand and the Solomon Islands are at governmental level, rather than between Heads of State. Thus, the countries exchange High Commissioners, rather than ambassadors.
