This is a partial list of the oldest living people in the world in ordinal ranks. In this table, a supercentenarian is considered 'verified' if his or her claim has been validated by an international body that specifically deals in longevity research, such as the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) or Guinness World Records (GWR) or is a notable person with a well sourced birthdate. All the people included in this list are supercentenarians (at least 110 years old).

The true number of living supercentenarians has been estimated at 150 and 600. The actual number of living supercentenarians is uncertain because not all supercentenarians are known to researchers and also because some supercententarian claims are unproven.

On 17 June 2015, American woman Susannah Mushatt Jones became the world's oldest living person, at the age of 115 years and 346 days.
