An optical disc recording medium includes: a substrate; at least one recording layer formed on at least one side of the substrate; and a cover layer formed on the substrate and the recording layer. The cover layer having a first thickness with reference to a surface of the substrate, in an inside of a circle having a first radius from a center of the substrate. The cover layer having a second thickness larger than the first thickness with reference to the surface of the substrate, on a circumference having a second radius longer than the first radius from the center of the substrate. The cover layer having a third thickness smaller than the first thickness with reference to the surface of the substrate, on a circumference having a third radius longer than the first radius and shorter than the second radius from the center of the substrate.
