The body of a man missing after his empty car was found in a flooded region of southern Queensland has been found.

The 26-year-old man was last seen driving away from his Ballandean home on Friday morning and was reported missing after he didn't make contact with friends and family.

A search involving police, State Emergency Service volunteers and a LifeFlight Rescue helicopter scoured the area near Stanthorpe, where there has been extensive flooding over the past five days, on Monday.

The man's body was found on Thursday and a report will be prepared for the coroner.
