An airbag device for a passenger seat that is disposed inside an instrument panel of the vehicle and protects an occupant inside the vehicle by inflation and deployment of an airbag when an emergency situation occurs, the airbag device comprising:

• an airbag having a compressed pre-deployment configuration comprising a plurality of layers formed in a vertical direction, and a deployment configuration in which the airbag is inflated and deployed when an emergency situation occurs,
• a restriction member that restricts deployment of the airbag such that a deployment direction of an upper layer portion of the airbag is directed toward an occupant side of a vehicle, wherein the upper layer portion is the first portion among the plurality of layers of the airbag to be deployed, the restriction member comprising a first flap, a portion of the first flap being fixed to the vehicle, wherein the first lap encloses at least part of a lower layer portion of the airbag, the lower layer portion of the airbag being deployed after the upper layer portion is deployed, the first flap having a first enclosure portion that encloses the occupant side of the lower layer portion of the airbag, and a second enclosure portion that extends between the lower layer portion and the upper layer portion of the airbag in a widthwise direction of the vehicle, the second enclosure portion covering a side surface of the lower layer portion,
• wherein a windshield side of the lower layer portion of the airbag is not covered by the first flap, and
• wherein the airbag is viewed from a side surface direction of the vehicle, the second enclosure portion of the first flap extends the obliquely downward from the occupant side toward the windshield side and covers the side surface of the lower layer portion.
