Oldest living people

This is a list of the oldest living people in the world. Supercentenarians that are categorized as "validated" have had their ages authenticated by an organization that specializes in age validation (GRG, IDL, etc.).

Supercentenarians that are categorized as "pending" have their ages partially authenticated, but remain to be fully processed by an age validation organization. The last group, "unvalidated", refers to supercentenarians that have not had their ages authenticated but for whom there is sufficient reliable-source reporting to at least have a claimed date of birth. However, only claimants age 110–114 that could potentially be validated in the future are included here. Since the death of Violet Brown of Jamaica, Nabi Tajima of Japan is the oldest living person whose age can be documented. There are currently 37 verified cases.

Bold indicates the individual is believed to be the oldest resident of their country.
