An ink jet recording apparatus has an ink jet head for ejecting ink. The ink jet recording apparatus includes a main tank for reserving the ink; a supply sub-tank for reserving the ink supplied from the main tank and supplying the ink to the ink jet head with a static pressure method; an ink circulation system including a first supply piping for connecting the main tank and the supply sub-tank to each other; and a filter provided on an ink circulation path of the ink circulation system on an ink jet head side with respect to a gas-liquid interface of the supply sub-tank at a time of ink circulation. The ink circulation system circulates the ink among the main tank, the supply sub-tank and the ink jet head. The ink circulation system is constructed so that at least a part of the ink passed through the first supply piping is directly ejected to one of a surface of the filter on an ink jet head side and a surface of the filter on a gas-liquid interface side.
