This is a list of tallest skyscrapers in Malaysia. The skyscrapers are ranked by structural height.

Most of Malaysia's tallest buildings can be found in the capital city of Kuala Lumpur. According to the World Tallest 50 Urban Agglomeration 2010 Projection by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, Kuala Lumpur was ranked 10th among cities to have most buildings above 100 metres with a combined height of 34,035 metres from its 244 high rise buildings.[1]

The Petronas Twin Towers were the tallest buildings in the world from 1998 to 2004 and remain the tallest twin towers in the world. They were the tallest buildings in Malaysia from 1998 to 2017 standing at a height of 452 meters (1,482 ft), until The Exchange 106 took its place with its current height of 470 meters (1,542 ft).
