A tape cassette which can maintain stably the accuracy of the reference planes for determining the height of the tape cassette and which allows enhancement in accuracy of positioning, height positioning reference planes being provided inwardly a specified distance apart from an outside casing surface of the tape cassette such that the reference plane for determining the height of the tape cassette relative to the apparatus is not provided on the outside casing surface of the tape cassette, thus the reference planes remain free from contact with any mechanism for loading the tape cassette or with any foreign matter in transport. Thus, the reference planes can be kept free from damage.
