A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor layer; a first conductivity type region of a first conductivity type formed in a base layer portion of the semiconductor layer; a body region of a second conductivity type formed in the semiconductor layer to be in contact with the first conductivity type region; a trench formed by digging the semiconductor layer from the surface thereof to pass through the body region so that the deepest portion thereof reaches the first conductivity type region; a gate insulating film formed on the bottom surface and the side surface of the trench; a gate electrode buried in the trench through the gate insulating film; a source region of the first conductivity type formed in a surface layer portion of the semiconductor layer on a side in a direction orthogonal to the gate width with respect to the trench to be in contact with the body region; and a high-concentration region of the second conductivity type, formed in the body region on a position opposed to the trench in the direction orthogonal to the gate width, having a higher second conductivity type impurity concentration than that of the periphery thereof.
