In a multilayer capacitor, both a minimum distance in a thickness direction between a first effective portion of a first inner electrode and a second main surface and a minimum distance in the thickness direction between a second effective portion of a second inner electrode and the second main surface are shorter than any of a dimension in the thickness direction of a first extending portion of the first inner electrode, a dimension in the thickness direction of a second extending portion of the first inner electrode and a dimension in the thickness direction of the third extending portion of the second inner electrode.
