Miss International 2013 was the 53rd Miss International pageant, held at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel Hall in Tokyo, Japan, on December 17, 2013. This was the second consecutive year Japan hosted the pageant.

At the end of the event, Alejandra Andreu, Miss International 2008, crowned Bea Rose Santiago of the Philippines as Miss International 2013.

The incumbent titleholder Miss International 2012 Ikumi Yoshimatsu of Japan was barred from attending the event due to her involvement in a scandal where a media executive Genichi Taniguchi allegedly harassed and intimidated Ms. Yoshimatsu for not signing on to a talent agency with ties to the Japanese Yakuza or underworld. ^{[2] [3]}
