A press-fit terminal includes a contact portion that is to be in contact with an inner wall of a through hole provided in a substrate; a leading end portion disposed on a leading end side relative to the contact portion in an insertion direction toward the through hole; a base portion disposed on an opposite side to the leading end portion with the contact portion being interposed between the leading end portion and the base portion; a penetration hole provided across the base portion, the contact portion, and the leading end portion; and a first inclination portion provided across the contact portion and the leading end portion and disposed continuous at an outer periphery of the penetration hole. The first inclination portion is inclined toward the penetration hole. The length, in a width direction, of at least part of the first inclination portion increases toward a leading end of the leading end portion, the width direction being orthogonal to the insertion direction and a penetration direction.
