A blood-collection position indicator facilitating blood collection is provided. An adhesive layer is positioned on the back face of a substrate portion having a convex cross section and a circular planar shape, and at its center, a through hole going through the substrate portion and the adhesive layer is provided to serve as a blood collection hole, thus obtaining a blood-collection position indicator. In the blood-collection position indicator, the protruding portion serves as an attachment part to be attached to the tip of a lancet device, and the protruding portion is inserted into a hole of the tip of the lancet device, thus attaching the blood-collection position indicator to the tip of the lancet device. Adhesive strength of the adhesive layer to the skin is set to be stronger than attachment strength of the attachment part to the tip of the lancet device. Consequently, only the first blood-collection position indicator remains on the skin after the lancet device is used. By using the blood-collection position indicator as a mark, blood can be collected from the blood collection hole.
