When a piece of tape is sewn as a belt loop on a garment such as, for example, pants, jeans or the like, opposite ends thereof is generally folded about 180.degree.. Folding of the piece of tape is accomplished by a tape end folding apparatus, which includes two tape folding shafts extending parallel to each other in a direction generally perpendicular to a direction of travel of the piece of tape, a center pin extending from one end of each of the tape folding shafts in a direction longitudinally thereof, a side pin extending from the one end of each of the tape folding shafts in parallel to the center pin, and at least one biasing member disposed above and pressed against the center pin. Each of the opposite ends of the piece of tape is folded by the center and side pins by rotating the tape folding shafts in opposite directions with each of the opposite ends of the piece of tape sandwiched between the center pin and the biasing member.
