What is the line of succession to the British throne?

The line of succession to the British throne determines the order in which individuals are eligible to inherit the throne. As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the current line of succession is as follows:

  • Charles, Prince of Wales (eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II)
  • Prince William, Duke of Cambridge (eldest son of Prince Charles)
  • Prince George of Cambridge (eldest son of Prince William)
  • Princess Charlotte of Cambridge (daughter of Prince William)
  • Prince Louis of Cambridge (youngest son of Prince William)
  • Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex (younger son of Prince Charles)
  • Archie Mountbatten-Windsor (son of Prince Harry)
  • Prince Andrew, Duke of York (younger brother of Prince Charles)
  • Princess Beatrice of York (eldest daughter of Prince Andrew)
  • Princess Eugenie of York (youngest daughter of Prince Andrew)
