The present invention provides a disposable absorbent article improved so that a frictional resistance of the non-skin-contactable surface of the article may be alleviated. A urine pad (1) has an imaginary longitudinal center line (2-2) bisecting a dimension of the urine pad (1) in a transverse direction (X), an imaginary transverse center line (3-3) bisecting a dimension of the urine pad (1) in a longitudinal direction (Y), an intermediate region (14), a front region (15) and a rear region (16) respectively defined by trisecting the dimension of the urine pad (1) in the longitudinal direction (Y). The urine pad (1) includes a topsheet (20) lying on a skin-contactable surface, a backsheet (30) lying on a non-skin-contactable surface and an absorbent body (20) lying between these sheets (20, 30). The backsheet (30) of the urine pad (1) is formed on the non-skin-contactable surface with a low-friction region (70) having a frictional resistance smaller than in the other regions. The low-friction region (70) is allocated between the imaginary transverse center line (3-3) and a rear end edge (12), more preferably in the rear region (16) . The low friction region (70) has a base material sheet and a silicon resin with which the base material sheet is coated.
