A seat reclining apparatus for a vehicle comprising: a locking mechanism (5L, 5R) that is interposed between a seat cushion and a seatback and selectively switches inclining of the seatback between a permitted state and a regulated state with respect to the seat cushion; a first operation member that performs a first unlocking operation which allows the seatback to incline with respect to the seat cushion within a predetermined angle range with respect to the locking mechanism; a second operation member that performs a second unlocking operation which allows the seatback to incline with respect to the seat cushion to a predetermined forward tilt position exceeding the predetermined angle range with respect to the locking mechanism; and a stopper mechanism that regulates a rearward tilt of the seatback at a predetermined regulation angle position included within the predetermined angle range in a state of the second unlocking operation of the second operation member, characterized in that the stopper mechanism includes a stopper link which is pivotally supported by a seat cushion side member; a stopper member (4a, 4b) which is provided in a seatback side member; a release link which is connected to each of the first operation member and the second operation member and turns to cause the locking mechanism to allow the inclining of the seatback with respect to the seat cushion to a predetermined forward tilt position in the state of the second unlocking operation of the second operation member; a first cam surface which is formed in the release link; a second cam surface which is formed in the stopper link, guides the stopper link so as to open a turning locus of the stopper member corresponding to a rearward inclining direction of the seatback when abutting on the first cam surface in a state where the inclining of the seatback is regulated with respect to the seat cushion by the locking mechanism, and allows the turning of the stopper link toward a side blocking the turning locus of the stopper member corresponding to the rearward inclining direction of the seatback while being released from the first cam surface in the state of the second unlocking operation of the second operation member; and an elastic member which urges to turn the stopper link so as to cause the first cam surface and the second cam surface to abut on each other in the state where the inclining of the seatback is regulated with respect to the seat cushion by the locking mechanism and so as to cause the stopper link, in which the second cam surface is released from the first cam surface in the state of the second unlocking operation of the second operation member, to block the turning locus of the stopper member corresponding to the rearward inclining direction of the seatback. a locking mechanism (5L, 5R) that is interposed between a seat cushion and a seatback and selectively switches inclining of the seatback between a permitted state and a regulated state with respect to the seat cushion;
