There is provided a switch circuit for switching whether to output an input signal, including: a transmission path that transmits the input signal from an input end to an output end of the switch circuit; a first semiconductor switch that is provided on the transmission path and switches whether to transmit the input signal; a second semiconductor switch that is opened when the first semiconductor switch is short-circuited, and that is short-circuited when the first semiconductor switch is opened, thereby grounding, to a ground potential, a high-frequency signal leaked to the transmission path between the first semiconductor switch and the output end; and a voltage controller that causes a potential difference on both ends of the second semiconductor switch when the second semiconductor switch is opened.
