An inspection device for filter cigarettes has a blocking pad ( 60 ) and a suction pad ( 80 ) for holding a filer cigarette (FC) therebetween at an inspection position when the filter cigarette (FC) is transferred along a transfer path in a filter-attaching machine, a pressure detector ( 94 ) for detecting the magnitude of the negative pressure produced in the filter cigarette (FC) when air in the filter cigarette (FC) is sucked in through the suction pad ( 80 ) in the state where the filter cigarette (FC) is held between the blocking pad ( 60 ) and the suction pad ( 80 ), and a controller ( 108 ) for deciding whether there is an adhesion defect of tip paper of the filter cigarette (FC) or not, based on the output from the pressure detector ( 94 ).
