List of Catholic dioceses in Estonia
 |
The Catholic Church in Estonia (a Baltic former Soviet republic, like Latvia and Lithuania) presently comprises only one Diocese , covering (only) the entire country :
- Diocese of Tallinn, formed on 26 September 2024 after the Apostolic Administration of Estonia was raised to a diocese.
There are no Eastern Catholic or other Latin prelatures.
There formally is an Apostolic Nunciature (papal diplomatic representation, embassy-level) to Estonia, but it's vested (like that to Latvia) in the Apostolic Nunciature to Lithuania in its national capital Vilnius.
