In a fluid transport apparatus, there are cases where a set fluid discharge amount cannot be accurately discharged, due to wear and tear on an elastic tube. Therefore, in a fluid transport apparatus including a fluid transport cartridge and a fluid transport driving unit that are separable from each other, the fluid transport cartridge comprises an elastic tube that transports fluid, a pressing portion that moves between a first position in which a transport path of the fluid is constricted by pressing on the elastic tube from outside and a second position in which the transport path of the fluid is not constricted, and a housing portion that houses a drive mechanism for moving the pressing portion.
