Provided is a nonvolatile memory device and a fabrication method. The nonvolatile memory device includes an active region defined in a semiconductor substrate, a gate insulating layer formed on the active region and a plurality of gate patterns formed on the gate insulating layer, and crossing over the active region. The gate insulating layer includes a discharge region in a predetermined portion between the gate patterns, the discharge region having a lesser thickness than that of the gate insulating layer under the gate pattern, because a thickness portion of the gate insulating layer is removed to form the discharge region.
