According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor region of a first conductivity type, a second semiconductor region of the first conductivity type, a first main electrode, a third semiconductor region of a second conductivity type, a second main electrode, and a plurality of embedded semiconductor regions of the second conductivity type. The second semiconductor region is formed on a first major surface of the first semiconductor region. The first main electrode is formed on a face side opposite to the first major surface of the first semiconductor region. The third semiconductor region is formed on a second major surface of the second semiconductor region on a side opposite to the first semiconductor region. The second main electrode is formed to bond to the third semiconductor region. The embedded semiconductor regions are provided in a termination region. A distance between the embedded semiconductor region and the second major surface along a direction from the second major surface toward the first major surface becomes longer toward outside from the device region.
