Yes, there is an international Girl Guide and Girl Scout organization. It is called the World Association of Girl Guides and Girls Scouts (WAGGGS). WAGGGS currently has over 10 million members in 145 countries.

Juliette Gordon Low's vision contributed towards forming a world wide organization. Lord Robert Baden-Powell and his wife, Olave Baden-Powell, also played a large part in forming an international association. Olga Malkowska (founded the Movement in Poland) and Antoinette Butte (founded the Movement in France) helped to create the movement we know today.

It was the Fifth International Conference held in Hungary in 1928 where the delegates from 26 countries officially formed WAGGGS.
