Provided are a radio communication terminal capable of causing a communication application to speedily find out whether D2D communication is possible by using a radio access network such as LTE. A terminal 400A includes a terminal finding unit 405 configured to find a candidate terminal capable of executing direct communication with the terminal 400A, a phonebook processing unit 420 configured to obtain direct-communication phonebook data containing an identifier of the candidate terminal found by the terminal finding unit 405, based on regular phonebook data containing an identifier of another radio communication terminal and being associated with the terminal 400A, and a direct communication execution unit 430 configured to execute direct communication with a counterpart terminal (e.g., a terminal 400B) indicated in a communication request from a communication application 410A, 410C, when the counterpart terminal is contained in the direct-communication phonebook data as the candidate terminal.
