A developing device that can suppress occurrence of fogging is achieved.
The developing device is provided with: a developer bearing member for
bearing a developer; and a charging member for charging the developer
borne by the developer bearing member. The charging member has: a first
layer that is placed in contact with the developer bearing member and
that contains a conductive agent; and a second layer that is positioned
on a side opposite from the developer bearing member with respect to the
first layer, and that contains a conductive agent at a density that is
greater than the density of the conductive agent contained in the first
layer.
