Miss International Guadeloupe is a national Beauty pageant responsible for selecting Guadeloupe's representatives to the International pageants. This pageant is not related to Miss Guadeloupe where the winner traditionally competes at Miss France contest.
Miss Guadeloupe pageant has been known since 1977 when the island competed at the Miss Universe pageant. Since 1984 the island joins Miss France contest as overseas department of the country. In 1985 it boycotts to the Miss Universe pageant, because of the pageant does allow that island competing in a national competition as a region.
Since 2003 Guadeloupe allows to compete at the Miss World contest. The "Miss International Guadeloupe" contest sends its winner to the Miss World. While runners-up might compete at the Miss International and Miss Earth pageants.
