An etching method including an etching step of bringing, in the presence of plasma, an etching gas containing a fluorine compound with three or fewer carbon atoms having at least one bond of a carbon-oxygen double bond and an ether bond in a molecule into contact with a target etching member having an etching target and a non-etching target, and selectively etching the etching target in comparison with the non-etching target. A concentration of the fluorine compound in the etching gas is 0.5 vol % or more to 40 vol % or less, and the etching target has silicon nitride.
