A coil component that includes a core, a first wire, and a second wire. The core has a prism-shaped winding core part. The first wire and the second wire are wound around the winding core part. The coil component has an overlapping winding region in which the first wire is wound around the winding core part and the second wire is wound around the winding core part on top of the first wire. The overlapping winding region includes a prescribed part in which the first wire and the second wire are wound around the winding core part in such a manner that a gap is interposed between a part of the first wire that is wound along a first side surface of the winding core part and a part of the second wire that is wound along the first side surface.
