A highly reliable semiconductor device including an oxide semiconductor is provided. The concentration of impurities contained in an oxide semiconductor of a semiconductor device including the oxide semiconductor is reduced. Electrical characteristics of a semiconductor device including an oxide semiconductor are improved. The semiconductor device includes an oxide semiconductor film; a gate electrode layer overlapping with the oxide semiconductor film; a gate insulating film between the oxide semiconductor film and the gate electrode layer; a metal oxide film overlapping with the gate insulating film with the oxide semiconductor film positioned therebetween; and a source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer electrically connected to the oxide semiconductor film. The metal oxide film covers at least a channel region and a side surface of the oxide semiconductor film.
