A grain oriented electrical steel sheet includes: by mass %, 0.010% or less of C; 2.50 to 4.00% of Si; 0.010% or less of acid soluble Al; 0.012% or less of N; 1.00% or less of Mn; 0.020% or less of S; and a balance comprising Fe and impurities, and has a tension-insulation coating at steel sheet surface and a SiO2 intermediate oxide film layer with an average thickness of 1.0 nm to 1.0 μm at an interface between the tension-insulation coating and the steel sheet surface. In the grain oriented electrical steel, when a surface of the intermediate oxide film layer is analyzed by an infrared reflection spectroscopy, a peak intensity IA at 1250 cm−1 and a peak intensity IB at 1200 cm−1 satisfy IB/IA≥0.010.
