An image decoding apparatus (40) which decodes, in parallel, a coded stream (Str) having processing order dependency includes: a slice data predecoding unit (402) which predecodes, on a macroblock group basis, macroblock groups included in the coded stream (Str) to generate macroblock decoding information (1001) necessary for decoding other macroblock groups; and a first macroblock decoding unit (404) and a second macroblock decoding unit (405) each of which decodes a corresponding one of macroblock groups included in the coded stream (Str) in parallel. Each of the macroblock decoding units (404, 405), when decoding the corresponding one of macroblock groups, uses the macroblock decoding information (1001) that has been generated for the other macroblock group.
