A method of at least one embodiment of the present invention for packing a TAB tape is a method in which the TAB tape is wound on a core reel so as to be packed, the TAB tape being a tape-shaped insulating film on which circuits are provided in a repeated manner, the circuits each of which is made up of metal wiring and a solder resist. In at least one embodiment, the method includes a first step of winding at least the TAB tape on an outer peripheral surface of a core reel having a cylindrical shape, the core reel having a shaft hole on its inner peripheral side. This makes it possible to provide (i) a method for packing a TAB tape which method makes it possible to reduce a packing size, and (ii) a smaller packing structure for a TAB tape.
