A light emitting apparatus includes: a semiconductor layer including a light emitting region that generates modulation light modulated with a first signal, and a feedback region that is configured so that a feedback mode to feed back a part of light generated in the light emitting region to the light emitting region and a monitor mode to monitor a light amount of the light generated in the light emitting region are switchable; and a controller, wherein when the modulation light is generated in the light emitting region, the controller sets the feedback region to the feedback mode, and the controller switches the feedback region to the monitor mode during at least a part of a period in which there is no first signal.
