The Miss International Malaysia organization hosted the coronation ceremony for the 2022 edition on 13th March 2022 at the Sabah Oriental Hotel in Kota Kinabalu, where the stunning finalists from all over the country competed for the crown and an opportunity to represent Malaysia at the Miss International 2022 pageant. At the end of the event, Giselle Tay Xin Heng was crowned as the new queen as she succeeded Miss International Malaysia 2019/2021 Charmaine Chew.

The finalists had arrived a few days before the finale night as they went through an induction session and a close question and answer session. The performance began with an introduction session on the night of the finale, during which each member fashioned their own national costume. The majority of them chose traditional clothing styles that represent diverse Malaysian ethnic groups, while some stand out with their own fashion interpretation.
