The Java Language Specification (citing the Java SE 24 edition, released on 2025-02-07) addresses this [here](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se24/html/jls-8.html#jls-8.10): >A record declaration is implicitly final. It is permitted for the declaration of a record class to redundantly specify the final modifier. This suggests that using `final` doesn't change a record's behavior.
