An electromagnetic relay includes a box-shaped insulating housing in which a closed space is formed, a pair of fixed terminals fixed to the housing electrically independently of each other and each having a fixed contact placement surface in the closed space, a plate-shaped conductive movable contactor that is provided in the closed space, has a first surface facing the fixed contact placement surfaces of the pair of fixed terminals, and is movably disposed such that the first surface approaches and separates from the fixed contact placement surfaces of the pair of fixed terminals, a pair of fixed contacts respectively provided on the fixed contact placement surfaces of the pair of fixed terminals, and a pair of movable contacts that is respectively provided on the first surface of the movable contactor and respectively face the pair of fixed contacts.
