The Royal Succession Act is an act of the New Zealand Parliament to alter the laws of succession to the New Zealand throne.

Compared to the Canadian Succession to the Throne Act, 2013 which merely assented to the British Succession to the Crown Act 2013, this legislation effectively re-legislated the effects of the British act.
