In a fuel cutoff valve of the invention, an opening at a lower end of a cylindrical bottom member defines a full level of fuel. The opening of the cylindrical bottom member has a flange that is protruded in a horizontal direction. This structure of the invention effectively interferes with invasion of the air into a casing of the fuel cutoff valve in the course of fuel supply to the full level.
