'''High Efficiency Video Coding tiers and levels''' are constraints that define a [[High Efficiency Video Coding]] (HEVC) bitstream in terms of maximum bit rate, maximum luma sample rate, maximum luma picture size, minimum compression ratio, maximum number of slices allowed, and maximum number of tiles allowed.<ref name=OverviewHEVCIEEE2012>{{cite news |title=Overview of the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) Standard |author=G.J.

The HEVC standard defines thirteen levels.<ref name=OverviewHEVCIEEE2012/><ref name=HEVCITURecommendationH265/> A level is a set of constraints for a bitstream.<ref name=OverviewHEVCIEEE2012/><ref name=HEVCITURecommendationH265/> For levels below level 4 only the Main tier is allowed.<ref name=OverviewHEVCIEEE2012/><ref name=HEVCITURecommendationH265/> A decoder that conforms to a given tier/level is required to be capable of decoding all bitstreams that are encoded for that tier/level and for all lower tiers/levels.<ref name=OverviewHEVCIEEE2012/><ref name=HEVCITURecommendationH265/>
<!-- Please don't change the default state of the table to collapsed using the mw-collapsed option since that causes problems with some web browsers such as making the customtoggle in the table not work when the page is refreshed or revisited. -->
