The Catholic Church in Estonia (a Baltic former Soviet republic, like Latvia and Lithuania) presently comprises only a pre-diocesan Latin rite jurisdiction, covering (only) the entire country : Apostolic Administration of Estonia, obviously not warranting a national episcopal conference, nor partaking in any more regional assembly then the EU-broad Commissio Episcopatuum Communitatis Europææ (COM.E.C.E.).

There are no Eastern Catholic or other Latin prelatures.
