contents In this paper, we establish higher-order derivative estimates for the Stokes equations in a three-dimensional domain containing two closely spaced rigid inclusions. We construct a sequence of auxiliary functions via an inductive process to isolate the leading singular terms of higher-order derivatives within the narrow region between the inclusions. For a class of convex inclusions of general shapes, the construction of three-dimensional auxiliary functions -- unlike the two-dimensional case -- relies on the decay properties of solutions to a class of two-dimensional partial differential equations with singular coefficients. Taking advantage of this, we obtain pointwise upper bounds of derivatives up to the seventh order for general inclusions. Under additional symmetry conditions, we derive optimal estimates for derivatives of arbitrary order. Consequently, we obtain precise blow-up rates for the Cauchy stress and its higher-order derivatives in the narrow region between the inclusions.
