This is a list of present Earls in the Peerages of England, Scotland, Great Britain, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. The general order of precedence among Earls is:

  1. Earls of England
  2. Earls of Scotland
  3. Earls of Great Britain
  4. Earls of Ireland created before 1801
  5. Earls of the United Kingdom and of Ireland created after 1801

N.B.— Several older earldoms still exist, but have become merged (either through marriage or through elevation) with marquessates or dukedoms, and are therefore not listed here.
