An image forming apparatus includes: an image bearing member which is rotated while bearing a toner image; an intermediate transfer belt onto which the toner image is primary-transferred from the image bearing member and which secondary-transfers the toner image onto a recording material; an image bearing member cleaning member which removes the toner from the image bearing member and in which a length of the image bearing member in a rotational axial direction is shorter than the image bearing member; and a bending member which is come into contact with a surface of the intermediate transfer belt onto which the toner image is primary-transferred and which bends the intermediate transfer belt, wherein, in the rotational axial direction of the image bearing member, assuming that a length of the image bearing member cleaning member is set to Ldrcln, a length of the intermediate transfer belt is set to Lb, and a length of the bending member is set to Lr, there is a relation of Lb>Ldrcln>Lr.
