The invention aims to provide a tape-shaped prepreg including unidirectionally oriented reinforcing fibers and a thermoplastic resin composition and being high in handleability during molding and high in adhesiveness to other members. The tape-shaped prepreg includes unidirectionally oriented reinforcing fibers and a thermoplastic resin composition and has an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) of 0.1 to 10 m in a direction perpendicular to the orientation direction of the reinforcing fibers, as measured according to JIS B 0601: 2013, and a warpage rate of 5% or less as determined by the procedure specified in (i) to (iii) below: (i) place a test piece of the above tape-shaped prepreg having a length of 100 mm in the fiber orientation direction on a plane in such manner that the end portions curl upward, (ii) measure the vertical distance from the highest position at the right end of the curled tape to the plane, which is denoted by a, and the vertical distance from the highest position at the left end to the plane, which is denoted by b, and calculate the arithmetic average of a and b, which is defined as the warpage distance, and (iii) calculate the warpage rate by the following equation: warpage rate (%)=warpage distance (mm)/100 (mm)100.
