- EnglishThe order of succession is lineal, so that only a child born in lawful wedlock of the Queen or King, or of one who is herself or himself entitled to the succession, may succeed, and so that the nearest line shall take precedence over the more remote and the elder in the line over the younger.
An unborn child shall also be included among those entitled to the succession and shall immediately take her or his proper place in the line of succession as soon as she or he is born into the world.
The right of succession shall not, however, belong to any person who is not born in the direct line of descent from the last reigning Queen or King or a sister or brother thereof, or is not herself or himself a sister or brother thereof.
When a Princess or Prince entitled to succeed to the Crown of Norway is born, her or his name and time of birth shall be notified to the first Stoning in session and be entered in the record of its proceedings.
For those born before the year 1971, Article 6 of the Constitution as it was passed on 18 November 1905 shall, however, apply. For those born before the year 1990 it shall nevertheless be the case that a male shall take precedence over a female. (Art. 6) - NorwegianArvefølgen er lineal, således at bare i lovlig ekteskap født barn av konge eller dronning eller av en som selv er arveberettiget, kan arve, og at den nærmere linje går foran den fjernere og den eldre i linjen foran den yngre.
Blant arveberettigede regnes også den ufødte, som straks inntar sitt tilbørlige sted i arvelinjen når han eller hun fødes til verden.
Dog tilkommer arverett ikke noen som ikke er født i rett nedstigende linje fra den sist regjerende konge eller dronning eller fra dennes bror eller søster, eller selv er dennes bror eller søster.
Når en til Norges krone arveberettiget prins eller prinsesse fødes, skal hans eller hennes navn og fødselstid tilkjennegis førstholdende storting og antegnes i dets protokoll.
For dem som er født tidligere enn året 1971, gjelder dog denne Grunnlovs § 6 således som den ble vedtatt den 18. november 1905. For dem som er født tidligere enn året 1990, gjelder likevel at mann går foran kvinne. (§ 6)
