スウェーデンの王位継承順位は、1810年にエレブルーで招集されたリクスダーゲン（国会）と国王カール13世が共同で承認した王位継承法（英語版）（スウェーデン語: Successionsordningen）に基づいて決定される^[1]^[2]。

1810年の王位継承法では、王位継承権は男子のみに与えられていた^[3]。1979年、リクスダーゲンは、性別に関係なく国王の第一子に法定推定相続人の権利を与える最長子相続制（絶対長子相続制）を導入した。この変更は1980年1月1日に施行され^[4]^[5]、スウェーデンは最長子相続制を採用する最初の国となった^[6]。

^ ^a ^b ^c ^d “The Act of Succession”. www.legislationline.org. 22 December 2013閲覧。 “The right of succession to the throne of Sweden is vested in the male and female descendants of King Carl XVI Gustaf's ... issue in direct line of descent. In this connection, older siblings and their descendants have precedence over younger siblings and their descendants... The King shall always profess the pure evangelical faith, as adopted and explained in the unaltered Confession of Augsburg and in the Resolution of the Uppsala Meeting of the year 1593（英語版）, princes and princesses of the Royal House shall be brought up in that same faith and within the Realm. Any member of the Royal Family not professing this faith shall be excluded from all rights of succession... A prince or princess of the Royal House may not marry unless the Government has given its consent thereto upon an application from The King. Should a prince or princess marry without such consent, that prince or princess forfeits the right of succession for himself, his children and their descendants... A prince or princess of the Swedish Royal House may not become the sovereign ruler of a foreign state whether by election, succession, or marriage without the consent of The King and the Riksdag. Should this occur, neither he nor she nor their descendants shall be entitled to succeed to the throne of Sweden.”
