The Minister of Foreign Affairs is a cabinet minister of Liberia in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a government ministry responsible for conducting foreign relations of the country.

Originally called the "Secretary of State", the position assumed its current name in 1972.[1]

Between 1848 and 1981, every officeholder came from Montserrado County, Liberia's most populous county.[1][2] The first individual to fill the post from outside of Montserrado was H. Boimah Fahnbulleh, Jr., who was originally from Grand Cape Mount County.[1]
