An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, an image forming unit, a belt conveying device including an intermediate transfer belt, a pair of restriction portions provided in the belt conveying device, and restriction engagement portions. The image forming unit forms a toner image on the image bearing member and the toner image is transferred to the intermediate transfer belt. The pair of restriction portions and the restriction engagement portions cooperate to restrict an orientation of the intermediate transfer belt. One restriction portion of the pair of restriction portions is supported to be movable to a first position where at least a part of the one restriction portion is placed outside a stretching area defined by the intermediate transfer belt in a stretched state, and a second position where the one restriction portion is inside the stretching area as viewed from a width direction of the intermediate transfer belt.
