Abstract
A multilayer ceramic electronic component includes a multilayer body and an external electrode on each of both end surfaces of the multilayer body. The external electrode includes an underlying electrode layer and a plating layer that is disposed on the underlying electrode layer. The underlying electrode layer includes Ni as a first metal component, Sn as a second metal component, and a ceramic material, and includes an alloy portion that is provided around the ceramic material and includes an alloyed Ni defining the first metal component and an alloyed Sn defining the second metal component.
