1. A multi-layer ceramic capacitor, comprising:

  • a body includinga multi-layer unit includingceramic layers laminated in a first direction,a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode that are alternately disposed between the ceramic layers,an end surface that is oriented in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, the first internal electrode being drawn from the end surface,an end margin that is disposed between the end surface and the second internal electrode, anda side surface that is oriented in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction, the first internal electrode and the second internal electrode being exposed to the side surface, anda side margin that covers the side surface of the multi-layer unit; and

    an external electrode that includes an entry portion and covers the body from a side of the end surface,the entry portion being disposed on the end margin,the entry portion entering a gap, between the side surface and the side margin, from the end surface,the entry portion projecting outward from the side surface towards the side margin,the entry portion being in direct physical contact with the side surface, andthe side surface being absent in the side margin.
