An image forming apparatus includes a transfer portion transferring a toner image to a sheet, and a sheet guide portion guiding the sheet to the transfer portion. The sheet guide portion includes a resin member and a conductive member. The conductive member is provided to be in contact with the sheet to which the toner image is being transferred by the transfer portion and on a surface of the resin member so as to be grounded through the resin member, and has a volume resistivity which is lower than that of the resin member.
