An object is to provide a fuel supply apparatus that is configured to cause fuel vapor generated by vaporization of a fuel circulated in a fuel tank to be smoothly joined with the supplied fuel. The fuel supply apparatus comprises a filler neck body that is configured to include a hollow fuel passage-forming portion arranged to define a fuel passage and a breather port; a nozzle guide that is placed inside of the fuel passage-forming portion and is configured to introduce a fueling nozzle; a guide portion that is configured to introduce an inflow gas flowing in from the breather port, to the fuel passage via an outer circumferential space; and a rib that is provided between the guide portion and a lower end in the first direction of the nozzle guide and is configured to divide the inflow gas introduced through the fuel passage.
