A meander line antenna formed in the shape of meander is disclosed. The meander line antenna includes a bottom half section that is constituted by a folded conductive pattern of a folded dipole antenna, and includes a feeding point for mounting an IC chip at the central part; a top half section that is constituted by a folded conductive pattern of a folded dipole antenna shaped like the bottom half section; and a frequency adjusting section consisting of connecting conductive patterns arranged at an interval corresponding to a desired frequency centering on the feeding point, the connecting conductive patterns connecting the bottom half section and the top half section. The connecting conductive patterns can be cut off, and the folded conductive pattern outside of the cut-off connecting conductive patterns can be removed.
