Abstract An IC card device has a frame, a print circuit board which is supported by the frame and on which are mounted electronic parts such as IC's or the like, as well as connectors, and a pair of electrically conductive covers which cover front and rear surfaces of the print circuit boards and which are fixed to the frame. The electrically conductive covers have elasticity and channel shaped bent portions at least on both side edges thereof. The frame has tapered surfaces at least in both external side corner portions thereof as well as slits on both external side surfaces thereof. Both side edges of the channel shaped bent portions are caused to slide, when the electrically conductive covers are pressed towards each other, along the tapered surfaces into engagement with the slits.
