Miss Grand Suriname is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Suriname representatives competing at the Miss Grand International contest. From 2014 to 2016 the right to send Surinamese candidates to compete at the mentioned international stage belonged to the national pageant of Miss Tropical Beauties Suriname, which is headed by Gietanjali Thakoer. Miss Grand Suriname title was first awarded in 2014 to the winner of Miss Tropical Beauties Suriname, Tashana Losche, who then competed at Miss Grand International 2014 in Thailand, but was unplaced.
The license of Miss Grand Suriname was purchased by a Netherlands-based pageant organizer, 12 Months of Beauty, in 2018, in which the first runner-up of Miss Grand Netherlands 2018 was assigned Miss Grand Suriname for that year international competition. However, since 2019 no Surinamese candidates competed in the Miss Grand International pageant due to a lack of licensees.[Note: No Surinamese representatives in the contestant lists from 2019 to 2022.]
Since the establishment of Miss Grand International, Suriname participated four times; from 2014 to 2018, but all of its representatives were unplaced.
