A seat occupancy determination apparatus includes first and second load detection portions arranged at one end of a seat in a width direction, a peak value detection portion detecting whether a peak value of a partial load value exists within a first predetermined time period in a case where the partial load value decreases to or below a first threshold value, and a first seat occupancy determination portion shifting a determination to a no occupant state in a case where the peak value is detected and a disengagement of a tongue plate from a buckle is detected within a predetermined time while an occupant seated state is determined. The first seat occupancy determination portion is inhibited from shifting the determination to the no occupant state in a case where the peak value is detected and the disengagement of the tongue plate is inhibited from being detected within the predetermined time.
