An inductor component includes an element body having a rectangular parallelepiped shape; an inner wire inside the body and including a coil spirally wound along a coil axial direction; a first outer electrode electrically connected to one end portion of the inner wire and on one of the end surfaces of the body; and a second outer electrode electrically connected to the other end portion of the inner wire and on the other end surface of the body. In a section parallel to the coil axial direction and orthogonal to a direction in which the inner wire extends, the inner wire has four corners, and a part of the inner wire at either end in a direction parallel to the coil axial direction includes the corner that is adjacent to a corner portion of the body and has a shape different from shapes of the remaining three corners.
