## Abstract

A coil component includes a support substrate having one surface including at least one groove portion; a coil portion disposed to contact the one surface of the support substrate; and a body embedding the support substrate and the coil portion, wherein the coil portion has an anchor portion disposed in the at least one groove portion, and a pattern portion disposed on the anchor portion and spaced apart from the one surface of the support substrate. A line width of the anchor portion is narrower than a line width of the pattern portion.
