A high-strength galvanized steel sheet contains C: 0.04% or more and 0.10% or less, Si: 0.7% or more and 2.3% or less, Mn: 0.8% or more and 2.0% or less, P: 0.03% or less, S: 0.003% or less, Al: 0.1% or less, and N: 0.008% or less on a mass percent basis, and the remainder of iron and incidental impurities. The C content [C%] (% by mass) and the Si content [Si%] (% by mass) satisfy [C%]×[Si%]≦0.20. A ferrite phase constitutes 75% or more, a bainitic ferrite phase constitutes 1% or more, a pearlite phase constitutes 1% or more and 10% or less, and a martensite phase constitutes less than 5% on an area ratio basis. The area ratio of the martensite phase/(the area ratio of the bainitic ferrite phase + the area ratio of the pearlite phase) is 0.6 or less.
