A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, includes: (a) providing a SiC epitaxial substrate in which on a SiC support substrate, a SiC epitaxial growth layer having an impurity concentration equal to or less than 1/10,000 of that of the SiC support substrate and having a thickness of 50 μm or more is disposed; (b) forming an impurity region, which forms a semiconductor element, on a first main surface of the SiC epitaxial substrate by selectively injecting impurity ions; (c) forming an ion implantation region, which controls warpage of the SiC epitaxial substrate, on a second main surface of the SiC epitaxial substrate by injecting predetermined ions; and (d) heating the SiC epitaxial substrate after (b) and (c).
