Line of Succession to the Luxembourg Throne

 


As of June 2011, Luxembourg's line of succession is based on equal primogeniture, beginning with the issue of the current Grand Duke. Prior to this change, Luxembourg followed Semi-Salic Law, where succession first goes to all the male dynasts and then to female dynasts only upon the extinction of all the the male dynasts.
