A SiC semiconductor device includes: a SiC substrate including a first or second conductive type layer and a first conductive type drift layer and including a principal surface having an offset direction; a trench disposed on the drift layer and having a longitudinal direction; and a gate electrode disposed in the trench via a gate insulation film. A sidewall of the trench provides a channel formation surface. The vertical semiconductor device flows current along with the channel formation surface of the trench according to a gate voltage applied to the gate electrode. The offset direction of the SiC substrate is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the trench.
