Inter regalia (Scots law)

The inter regalia are the rights falling to the Crown (ie: The King/Queen of Scots) in Scots Property law. The term derives from Latin inter (among) and regalia (things of the king).

There are two classes of rights, divided into:

  • The regalia majora (major regalia), which are inseparable from the person of the sovereign.
  • The regalia minora (minor regalia), which may be conveyed to a subject.
