Sister cities
Twinned with São Tomé
5 of 5 in this atlas
São Tomé maintains formal town-twinning ties with several capitals, most confirmed from both sides. Accra, Kingstown, Lisbon, and Luanda each name São Tomé in return, making these mutual pairings, while Libreville lists São Tomé as a partner without reciprocal acknowledgment. The overall pattern is one of broad mutual recognition, with a single one-sided exception among the five listed municipalities.

| Kingstown | VC | 7,615 km | yes |
| Libreville | GA | 302 km | not listed |
| Lisbon | PT | 4,566 km | yes |
| Luanda | AO | 1,249 km | yes |
1 of these do not list São Tomé back. Twinning is declared independently by each municipality, so one-sided pairs are common — and usually more interesting than the mutual ones.
