A threaded joint for heavy-walled oil country tubular goods can both ensure sealability and prevent galling in a state where a high external pressure is also applied to the threaded joint in addition to a high compressive force. A surface of a pin side forming a seal portion and a surface of a box side forming a seal portion are formed into a convex curved surface and a tapered surface, respectively. A seal thickness ts of the pin is 15 mm or less, a shape parameter ts/D (D: outer diameter of a pin raw pipe portion) is 0.045 or more, and a complete thread length ratio L/t (L: complete thread length of the pin, t: wall thickness of the pin raw pipe portion) is 4.0 or less.
