The developing device further includes an agitating member agitating the developer in the accommodating chamber, a shaft member including an attachment portion to which the agitating member is attached, and a conveying sheet conveying the toner. The conveying sheet includes a fixed portion fixed to the inner wall of the developing frame forming the accommodating chamber, and a displacement portion that is movable toward the opening by coming into contact with the agitating member. The rotation center of the shaft member is provided within an imaginary circle centered at the boundary point between the fixed portion and the displacement portion and passing through the distal end of the displacement portion.
