- The reigning king selects who will be his successor, whom is not necessarily his eldest son.
- The current emir is of the Al-Jaber branch of the family. The Al Sabah are a clan of the Anizah tribe.
- The heir is appointed by the reigning emir, and the nomination must also be approved by a majority of members in the National Assembly. The throne is also traditionally alternated between the two main branches of the Al Sabah family: the Al Salem and Al Jaber.
- ^ Monarchy is constitutional by law, but remains absolute in practice.
- The Al Thani are a clan of the Tamim tribe.

- The succession to the throne of Saudi Arabia, while hereditary, is not determined by any law of succession. Instead, it is based on the consensus of the House of Saud as to who will be Crown Prince; consensus may change depending on the Crown Prince's actions. In effect, this makes the Saudi monarchy elective within the Saud family. The king's eldest son has not inherited the throne since 1953.
- ^ The Al Nahyan are a branch of the House of Al Falahi, a clan of the Yas tribe.
- The Prime Minister is the head of the government, but the position, whilst elective, can only be held by one of the reigning monarchs of the seven constituent emirates.

However, by informal agreement the Presidency is always passed to the head of the Al Nahyan clan, the Emir of Abu Dhabi, which makes it a de facto hereditary position. In addition, the elected Prime Minister has always been the head of the Al Maktoum clan and Emir of Dubai.
