Tall Clubs International (TCI) is a social organization in the United States and Canada, comprising over fifty independent Tall Clubs.

The group says its mission is "to promote tall awareness among tall men and women, and in the community; to provide social activities of mutual interest, travel to cities around the U.S. and Canada for gatherings including members from several TCI clubs; run a convention each year to conduct the business of the Corporation with representatives of all clubs; and select a new Miss Tall International, the official public representative and good will ambassador for TCI."
