A fuel injection control apparatus for an internal combustion engine which can inject a fuel injection quantity to a fuel injector with accuracy even when the fuel injection quantity is reduced than before is provided. A fuel injection control apparatus of a direct cylinder injection type of internal combustion engine, including a fuel injector which performs fuel injection by supplying a drive current to a solenoid, a fuel pressure sensor which detects fuel pressure supplied to the fuel injector, and operation state detecting means which detects the operation state of the internal combustion engine, comprises current profile changing means 100 which has multiple current profiles of the drive current and changes current profiles based on the operation state and the fuel pressure, valid pulse width calculating means 701 which calculates a valid pulse width for opening and driving the fuel injector, invalid pulse width calculating means 103 which calculates an invalid pulse width, and fuel injector control means which calculates a fuel injection pulse width based on the valid pulse width and the invalid pulse width, and controls the fuel injector based on the fuel injection pulse width, wherein the invalid pulse width calculating means 103 calculates an invalid pulse width corresponding to the current profiles to be changed before the current profiles are changed.
