Abstract
The main face of an element body of an inductor component has a two-fold symmetrical shape with respect to the geometric center of the main face. First and second inductor wires extend inside the element body. Four terminal portions, each having a terminal portion exposed from the main face, are in the element body, two of the which are first external terminals, one a second external terminal, and one a dummy portion which is a specific dummy portion. The main face is divided into four congruent imaginary regions with one terminal portion in each. The terminal portion in the first imaginary region, that is an imaginary region at a two-fold symmetrical position around the geometric center with respect to the fourth imaginary region having the specific dummy portion, is a specific terminal portion. The shapes of the specific dummy and terminal portions are different from each other.
