A multilayer ceramic capacitor includes first internal electrodes extending to a first end surface of a ceramic element assembly, a plurality of second internal electrodes extending to a second end surface, floating internal electrodes arranged so as to overlap the first and second internal electrodes with ceramic layers disposed therebetween to define first and second effective regions, inner conductors that are elongated from the first end surface beyond a region that overlaps the first effective region in the direction of layering, and a relationship X1<Y1<(L−E) is satisfied where L is the dimension in the longitudinal direction extending from the first end surface to the second end surface, X1 is the longitudinal-direction dimension of each of the first internal electrodes, Y1 is the distance between the first end surface and an end of each of the first internal electrodes, and E is the distance between the second end surface and an end of the second extended section.
