The present invention provides a movable range setting device and a movable range setting method for a probe. The invention can, prior to performing an ultrasonic inspection, set an x-axis movable range, a y-axis movable range and a z-axis movable range of the probe used for the ultrasonic inspection. The device has an x-axis movable range setting unit (101), a y-axis movable range setting unit (111), and a z-axis movable range setting unit (121). The x-axis movable range setting unit sets a x-axis movable range in the x-axis direction of the probe based on an extension direction of a surface of an inspected object, which is the movement of the probe in the x-axis. The y-axis movable range setting unit sets a y-axis movable range in the y-axis of the probe based on the movement of the probe in the y-axis direction orthogonal to the x-axis as the extension direction of the surface of the inspected object. The z-axis movable range setting unit sets a z-axis movable range in the z-axis of the probe based on the
