Original Abstract Submitted

A multilayer ceramic capacitor includes a multilayer body and external electrodes, which each include a base electrode layer, an electrically conductive resin layer, and a plated layer. The electrically conductive resin layer at a ridge portion of the multilayer body has a film thickness of about 0.8 μm or more and about 8 μm or less. The electrically conductive resin layer includes a peeling region separating from the multilayer body at least one extending portion. The peeling region extends from an end portion of the electrically conductive resin layer adjacent to a middle of the multilayer body in a length direction to before an end of the base electrode layer adjacent to the middle of the multilayer body in the length direction. The peeling region has a dimension of about 5 μm or more in the length direction.
