An inductor component includes a substantially rectangular parallelepiped device body including a first lateral surface and includes a coil conductor layer formed into a spiral wound more than one turn on a main surface parallel to the first lateral surface inside the device body. In the coil conductor layer, a wiring spacing between two wiring portions adjacent to each other (straight portions) in a first direction from an inner side portion to an outer side portion of the coil conductor layer differs from a wiring spacing of two wiring portions adjacent to each other (curved portions) in a second direction from the inner side portion to the outer side portion of the coil conductor layer, the second direction differing from the first direction.

Inductor component

Anchor conductors extending from internal terminal conductors and being in contact with a component body are provided inside the component body. The anchor conductors are provided so as not to be connected to a coil conductor including a circulating portion, and so as not to be exposed on an outer surface of the component body. The anchor conductors are in contact with the component body to thereby enhance fixing force of the internal terminal conductors to the component body.
