MABBIM (Majlis Bahasa Brunei-Indonesia-Malaysia, "Language Council of Brunei-Indonesia-Malaysia") is a regional language organization which is formed to plan and monitor the development of the Malay language and its many national standards in the region. It consists of three countries where the language is predominately used – Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia.

It was founded as MBIM (Majlis Bahasa Indonesia-Malaysia, "Language Council of Indonesia-Malaysia") on 29 December 1972. MBIM became MABBIM when Brunei joined this council on 4 November 1985. Singapore is as an observer.
