Provided are a bonded structure, a sealed structure, an electronic component including the same, a bonding method, and a sealing method, the bonded structure and sealed structure allow hermetic adhesion using an adhesive even when the materials of the bonding surfaces are different, or the bonding surfaces have low wettability for the adhesive. A sealed structure 21 used for an electronic component or the like includes a first bonding surface 17 on a first adherent 11 bonded to a second bonding surface 18 on a second adherent 16 via an adhesive layer 24, the first and/or second bonding surfaces 17 and 18 having films 22 and 23 of film-forming compounds, the film-forming compounds being bound to the surfaces 17 and 18 at one end of the molecule thereof, and bound to a molecule of the adhesive at the functional group at the other end of the molecule.
