An ink jet recording head comprises a support member that has an opening used for ink supply and that is formed of a resin material, a recording element board that has an ink supply port that communicates with the opening, and a wall that at least partially contacts a peripheral side face of the recording element board that is bonded to the support element. The wall is formed on the support member surrounding the opening, and is used to position the recording element board, relative to the support member, in a direction in which contact is made by the wall.
