A highly reliable scroll compressor adapted to make the amount of a refrigerant taken in through a first suction inlet of a scroll compression element as equal as possible to that taken in through a second suction inlet of the scroll compression element so as to improve the intake efficiency, thereby suppressing pulsation and noise. If the sectional area of the inlet of a refrigerant passage through which a refrigerant taken in flows from an end of a swivel lap via the outer periphery thereof to the second suction inlet is denoted as A1, the sectional area of the inlet of the first suction inlet is denoted as A2, and the sectional area of the inlet of a communication groove is denoted as A3 when the gap between a stationary lap and the swivel lap of the scroll compression element reaches its maximum, then A1, A2, and A3 stay within a range defined by 1.5<=A2/(A1+A3)<=2.5.
