Provided is a syringe storage container configured so that a syringe can be extracted without raising a syringe holding section. A syringe storage container (1) is provided with a syringe (10), a cap (30), a syringe holding section (40), and a container body (50). The syringe (10) has a discharge section (12), a flange section (16), and a side peripheral section (11) which continues to both the discharge section (12) and the flange section (16). The cap (30) is mounted to the discharge section (12) and has an outer radius (R2) greater than the outer radius (R1) of the side peripheral section (11). The container body (50) has an opening (53) at the upper part thereof and is formed in a square box-like shape. The syringe holding section (40) is placed within the container body (50), has a through-hole (43) for allowing the syringe (10) to be inserted therein in the vertical direction, and holds the syringe (10) inserted in the through-hole (43). An inner peripheral surface (44) which forms the through-hole (43) is formed in such a manner that the radius of the upper end of the inner peripheral surface (44) is greater than the outer radius (R2) of the cap (30) and in such a manner that the radius (R4) of the lower end of the inner peripheral surface (44) is greater than the radius of the upper end thereof. The inner peripheral surface (44) has a tapered section (45) having a diameter reducing as the tapered section (45) extends upward from the lower end.
