The Embassy of Equatorial Guinea in London was the diplomatic mission of Equatorial Guinea in the United Kingdom.[1]

In 2021 the Equatoguinean government announced this embassy will close. This was in response to the UK government sanctioning Teodoro Obiang Mangue, the vice-president and son of the president of the country, accusing him of misappropriating money.[2] Soon afterwards, the embassy was closed.[3]
