The honorary commissioner-in-chief (Malay: Pesuruhjaya Yang Dipertua Kehormat, Jawi: ڤسوروهجاي يڠ دڤرتوا کحرمت) of the Royal Malaysia Police, is the highest-ranking and ceremonial office in the command structure of the Malaysian police. This office is held by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (king of Malaysia) as provided by Section 6A of the Police Act 1967.
It was created with the intention to reflect the king’s role in the ceremonial affairs of the police force and recognizes his position as the supreme head of the nation under Article 32 of the Federal Constitution. The proposal to create such position for the king was approved in 265th meeting of the Conference of Rulers held on 21 and 22 February 2024, and the related legislative amendment bill was passed by the Dewan Rakyat on 21 March 2024 and Dewan Negara on 1 April 2024. The office was officially created on 10 May 2024 when the Police (Amendment) Act 2024, which inserted the new Section 6A into the Police Act 1967, came into operation on that day.
