This is a list of living supercentenarians (living people who have attained the age of at least 110 years). Worldwide there are estimated to be 300–450 living supercentenarians.[1] This page lists both verified and unverified cases. Currently there are 83 verified living supercentenarians and 84 unverified living supercentenarians.

Verified living supercentenarians

Below is a list of verified living supercentenarians. 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. There are currently 83 such individuals, of whom 78 are female and 5 are male.
