Upon ratification, the records appear on the official records listing.

Notes
- C1^ : Record set by CN Marseille club team.
- WB^ : World all-time best performances. Before September 26, 2013, FINA did not recognise 4×50 m relays and therefore did not ratify any official world records for these events. European Aquatics does recognise these events as official and ratifies European records for them. European SC Championships are the most important international meets where these events are held: during these meets, world best performances are usually announced as world records even though they are not.
- <1^ : Alain Bernard of France swam a time of 46.94 in the semifinal of the men's 100 m freestyle at the 2009 French Championships, however the record was not ratified by European Aquatics.
