A rotor for a rotary electric machine includes a rotor core being rotatable around a rotational axis. The rotor core includes a plurality of steel plates stacked in a stacking direction. Each of the plurality of steel plates includes a plurality of magnet insertion piece holes, a plurality of through piece holes, a radially inner side annular ring, a radially outer side annular ring, and a plurality of ribs. The plurality of magnet insertion piece holes are provided at every first circumferential space. The plurality of magnet insertion piece holes constitute a plurality of magnet insertion holes in a state in which the plurality of steel plates are stacked in the stacking direction while the plurality of steel plates are rotated by the first circumferential space at every timing at which a predetermined number of the plurality of steel plates are stacked in the stacking direction.
