An optoelectronic semiconductor component includes an optoelectronic semiconductor that is partly embedded into a shaped body, which is formed from a molding compound that at least partly covers at least two lateral faces and the rear surface of the optoelectronic semiconductor chip. A first contact layer and a second contact layer are arranged on the shaped body and are electrically connected to the optoelectronic semiconductor chip. A mounting face is arranged transversely in relation to the radiation passage face and is provided for mounting the optoelectronic semiconductor component.
