A video signal combining apparatus for combining at least three video signals (VA, VB, VC) including a key signal (KA, KB, KC) and depth signal (ZA, ZB, ZC) includes at least two cascade-connected 2-input combiners (1, 2) which combine two of the video signals so that the output of a preceding stage becomes one input of the next stage; a decision circuit (3) which decides on a pixel by pixel basis on an order of arrangement in a depth direction among images from the depth signal of the input video signals; and a switching circuit (4) which rearranges the input video signals in an order of arrangement based on the result of decision of the decision circuit (3) and outputs the result in a parallel manner to the inputs of the above-described combiners (1, 2) so that the video signals are sequentially combined in the decided order of arrangement.
