Disclosed are a vacuum insulation member, a refrigerator having the vacuum insulation member, and a method for fabricating the vacuum insulation member. The vacuum insulation member includes: a core having a certain shape and having a decompressed space therein; and a gas barrier layer formed by coating a certain material on a surface of the core to have impermeability. Accordingly, the use of an envelope (film) can be avoided to obtain reliability, and the use of a glass fiber core which must undergo a preprocessing process for which much equipment and time are required can be avoided.
