the lower layer includes a lower layer window portion through which a part of the hinge layer and the thickness adjustment layer is visually recognizable and which is provided in a region overlapping the upper layer window portion.

9. The hinged laminated body according to claim 8 ,

wherein the thickness adjustment layer forms at least a part of a housing hole that holds the IC module by housing the IC module therein.

10. The hinged laminated body according to claim 8 , further comprising

a housing hole that houses the IC module,

wherein the thickness adjustment layer covers an opening of the housing hole.

11. The hinged laminated body according to claim 8 , further comprising

an antenna buried layer having an antenna buried groove in which the antenna is buried,

wherein the thickness adjustment layer holds the antenna by covering an opening of the antenna buried groove of the antenna buried layer.

12. The hinged laminated body according to claim 8 ,

wherein the thickness adjustment layer includes an antenna buried groove in which the antenna is buried.

13. A layout sheet for a hinged laminated body in which a plurality of hinged laminated bodies according to claim 8 is arranged.

14. A booklet in which the hinged laminated body according to claim 8 is bound at the hinge section included in the hinged laminated body.

15. A layout sheet for a hinged laminated body in which a plurality of hinged laminated bodies is arranged,

wherein the hinged laminated body includes:

an IC chip capable of performing contactless communication;
