[PROBLEMS] To provide an absorbent article that has a winglike flap and, in the state of being individually packaged, has the winglike flap doubled over, and that is designed so that no pressure sensitive adhesive layer is present on the surface of the winglike flap on its side of front face sheet when the winglike flap is folded onto the side of front face sheet and temporarily fixed. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] In the state of product being individually packaged, not only is winglike flap (W) together with for-wing release member (12) folded onto the side of liquid-permeable front face sheet (3) but also individual packaging member (16) is bonded with for-main-body release member (11) and/or the for-wing release member (12). Accordingly, there is no overlapping of winglike flap (W,W) on the side of liquid-permeable front face sheet (3), and distal end portions of the for-wing release member (12) are superimposed one upon the other. At the superimposing area (S), the portions of the for-wing release member (12) are detachably bonded together by means of wing temporary fixing pressure sensitive adhesive layer (14).
