To provide a fuel injection valve easy in manufacturing and assembling, excellent in cost effect and advantageous for installation within an internal combustion engine.

An injection valve member 30 for opening and closing an injection orifice 28 of a valve seat element 22 is mounted within center housing bores 40, 42 of the fuel injection valve 1 so as to be adjustable in the axial direction and is controlled in opening and closing by a control device S1. In control pistons 31, 33 connected to the injection valve member 30, fuel system pressure of a high pressure zone and fuel control pressure and applied. The center housing bores 40, 42 are closed into sealed states by a control body 74 fixed to a housing. Control space is arranged between the control body 74 and a piston end face and temporarily becomes a boundary of the radial direction by a control sleeve 72 movable in the direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis A of the housing. A narrow sliding guide R0 between the control piston part 33 and a control sleeve separates control space from the high pressure zone and forms a precision longitudinal direction guide for control sleeve.
