A method for manufacturing a highly reliable semiconductor device is provided. The method includes the steps of: forming an oxide semiconductor film at a first temperature; processing the oxide semiconductor film into an island shape; not performing a process at a temperature higher than the first temperature, but depositing a material to be source and drain electrodes by a sputtering method; processing the material to form the source and drain electrodes; forming a protective insulating film, and then forming a first barrier film; adding excess oxygen or oxygen radicals to the protective insulating film through the first barrier film; performing heat treatment at a second temperature lower than 400° C. to diffuse the excess oxygen or oxygen radicals into the oxide semiconductor film; and removing part of the first barrier film and part of the protective insulating film by wet etching, and then forming a second barrier film.
