Provided is an absorbent article with which it is possible to suppress discomfort when worn and which can be cleanly discarded using a post-processing tape portion for discarding. The absorbent article (10) comprises: a body region (RA) in which a surface sheet (21), a back sheet (22), and an absorbing core (23) are overlapped; and an extending region (RB) which extends beyond an outer edge of the absorbing core and in which at least the surface sheet and the back sheet are arranged. The extending region has a tape portion (80) which is configured to be foldable so that a non-skin-opposing surface faces a skin-opposing-surface side of the absorbent article, and a non-tape portion (81) that does not constitute the tape portion. The non-skin-opposing surface of the tape portion is configured to be fixedly attachable to at least one of the non-skin-opposing surface in the body region and the non-skin-opposing surface in the non-tape portion.本發明之目的係在於提供既可抑制穿用時的不舒服,又在廢棄時藉由後處理用帶部清潔地廢棄之吸收性物品。吸收性物品(10)係具有:表面薄片(21)、背面薄片(22)及吸收芯材(23)重疊之本體區域(RA);及較吸收芯材的外緣更延伸出來,且至少配置有表面薄片及背面薄片之延伸出來的延伸區域(RB)。在延伸區域,設有:構成可將非肌膚對向面折返成朝向吸收性物品的肌膚對向面之帶部(80);及不構成帶部之非帶部(81)。帶部的非肌膚對向面係構成為可固定安裝於本體區域的非肌膚對向面與非帶部的非肌膚對向面中的至少一方。
