A terminal (1) for an electrical connector includes a flat soldering portion (11), a flexed portion (12) extending from the soldering portion, and a contacting portion (14) extending upwardly from the flexed portion. The soldering portion has a soldering face (111) and the connecting portion extends away from the soldering face. A rectangular overflowing aperture (120) extends through a centre of the flexed portion. Thus, the terminal is securely soldered on a printed circuit board to thereby achieve a reliable electrical connection between the terminal and the printed circuit board.
