Provided is a manufacturing method for a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet with which it is possible to achieve both good iron loss and high productivity. In groove formation for magnetic domain refinement, a resist containing a photosensitive resin is applied, photoexposed, and developed to form an exposed steel substrate portion having a linear shape. Subsequently, electrolytic etching is performed at current density ρ=I/S of 7.5 A/cm2 or more with respect to the exposed steel substrate portion, where I represents current supplied to an electrode and S represents surface area of the exposed steel substrate portion in a steel sheet surface of equal surface area to the electrode.
