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.

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)
