The Diocese of Gibraltar (Latin: Dioecesis Gibraltariensis) is a Latin Church diocese of the Catholic Church in the British overseas territory of Gibraltar. About twenty priests and nine sisters serve in the diocese. Carmelo Zammit was installed as bishop on 24 September 2016. At just over 6 square kilometers, it is among the smallest of all Catholic dioceses in the world.

The papal representative to Gibraltar since 2023 has been the Nuncio to Great Britain, Miguel Maury Buendía.
