Also known as physical person, natural entity
real human being as opposed to a non-human legal person
A natural person is a real human being, as distinguished from organizations or entities like corporations that can also have legal rights and responsibilities. This distinction matters because laws often treat natural persons and non-human legal entities differently—for example, only natural persons can vote or serve prison sentences, while corporations might have different privileges or limitations under the law.

In jurisprudence, a natural person (also physical person in some Commonwealth countries, or natural entity) is a person (in legal meaning, i.e., one who has its own legal personality) that is an individual human being, distinguished from the broader category of a legal person, which may be a private (i.e., business entity or non-governmental organization) or public (i.e., government) organization. Historically, a human being was not necessarily considered a natural person in some jurisdictions where slavery existed (subject of a property right) rather than a person.
