There are very limited exceptions to get out of undertaking the service with young royals not exempt.
However, as Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are being raised in the US they will not be affected by the plans.
If Meghan and Harry decided to relocate from the US back to the UK in the coming years, then Archie and Lilibet would still be expected to undertake National Service when they turn 18.
Prince George, 10, would be the first of the Waleses to undertake the scheme, if it is rolled out, when he turns 18 in July 2031.

The Royal Family has a long history of serving in the military with Archie and Lilibet's father Prince Harry undertaking tours of Afghanistan.
The Duke of Sussex discussed killing 25 enemy fighters in his autobiography Spare which was published in January 2023.
Harry's comments in the book comparing those he killed to "chess pieces" drew criticism from the military community.
He wrote: "You can't kill people if you think of them as people. You can't really harm people if you think of them as people.
"They were chess pieces removed from the board, Bad taken away before they could kill Goods."
