Roman Catholicism in the Comoros

The Roman Catholic Church in the Comoros is part of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope in Rome.

There are very few Catholics in this overwhelmingly Islamic country - around 4,300 in total representing about 0.5% of the total population. No dioceses have been established, but the whole of the country forms the Apostolic Vicariate of the Archipelago of the Comores.[1]
