An IC card connection unit according to the invention is for use in electronic equipment into which an IC card is inserted. It included a body provided with a contacting arrangement for contacts, and a card supporter fixedly attached to the body, provided with a recess for forming a card insertion path. A card butting part movable when pressed by the tip of the IC card is disposed in the card insertion path, and a pressing force applied to the card butting part is converted into a force acting in the direction crossing the direction of the card insertion path, whereby contacts of the equipment are shifted so as to be in contact with contacts of the IC card while the IC card is retained in the card insertion path.
