The Apostolic Vicariate of Taytay is a Latin Catholic pre-diocesan missionary jurisdiction in the island of Palawan in the Philippines.[1]

It is not a part of any ecclesiastical province as it is directly subject to the Holy See (under the jurisdiction of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples), yet for the purpose of apostolic cooperation usually grouped with the Ecclesiastical Province of Manila, along with the Roman Catholic Apostolic Vicariate of Puerto Princesa.

Its episcopal see is the Cathedral of Saint Joseph the Worker, in Taytay, Palawan.[4]

Nuestra Señora de la Consolacion y Correa de Cuyo of Cuyo, Palawan was granted of Episcopal Coronation on August 27, 2022, making her the first Marian image receive such an honor.[5]

History
