A capless filler includes a housing, a flap, and a biasing spring. The housing has a fuel hole. The flap includes a supported part, a base, and a protrusion. The supported part is provided at an end part and is supported by the housing. The base extends to the supported part. The protrusion protrudes from the base. The flap is turned on a fulcrum at the supported part between open and closed positions. The biasing spring biases the flap in a direction from the open position to the closed position. The biasing spring pushes the base against an opening rim of the fuel hole at the closed position. The flap is turned in a direction from the closed position to the open position in response to the protrusion being pushed. At least a part of the protrusion is provided as a nozzle guide.
