Crown Prince of Bahrain

The crown prince of the Kingdom of Bahrain (Arabic: ولي عهد مملكة البحرين) is the heir apparent to the King of Bahrain and official heir presumptive to the King.

Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa was sworn in as Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Bahrain on 9 March 1999 and held the post of commander-in-chief of the Bahrain Defence Force from 22 March 1999 to 6 January 2008.[citation needed]

The succession of the Kingdom of Bahrain throne is determined by agnatic primogeniture amongst the male descendants of King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. However, the ruling King of Bahrain has the right to appoint any of his other sons as his successor according to article 1 of the Constitution of Bahrain.

After Isa bin Mohammed Al Khalifa come firstly the descendants of Hakim Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, and then last in line the descendants of Hakim Isa bin Ali Al Khalifa.
