To provide a packaging container which does not stick out widely relative to a commodity, has a simple structure to accommodate the product without shakiness, and efficiently displays the commodity.

A packaging body 2 made of a sheet-like member accommodates the container 1 filled with contents. The packaging body 2 is equipped with a bottom 6, and a cylindrical trunk 7 which extends upward from the bottom 6 to cover at least the lower peripheral surface of the container 1 and is almost identical in shape with the container 1 along its lower peripheral surface. The trunk 7 has an extension 19 which extends upward from a specific spot on the upper end of the trunk 7, and the extension 19 has a contacting part 22 which comes in contact with at least a part of the upper end of the container 1 accommodated in the packaging body 2 to prevent the container 1 from moving upward. The upper end of the trunk 7 and the lateral end of the extension 19 jointly form a cutout K that exposes a specific range of an upper part of the outer surface of the container 1 accommodated in the packaging body 2, in the specific range extending from the front face to reach the back face of the outer surface.
