This page is a list of saints, blesseds, venerables, and Servants of God from Oceania, as recognized by the Roman Catholic Church. These people were born, died, or lived their religious life in any of the states or territories of Oceania.
The region of Oceania was the last continent where the Catholic Church arrived. Consequently, it is the continent with the smallest number of saints.
The following is the list of saints, including the year in which they were canonized and the country or countries with which they are associated.
Others have been proposed for beatification, and may have active groups supporting their causes. These include:
