## Abstract

A high-frequency module includes a wiring board, a component that is mounted on an upper surface of the wiring board, a sealing resin layer that is laminated on the upper surface of the wiring board and that seals the component, a first shield layer that is laminated on the sealing resin layer so as to cover an opposite surface of the sealing resin layer and a peripheral side surface of the sealing resin layer, the opposite surface being opposite to the upper surface of the wiring board, and a second shield layer that is laminated on a portion of the first shield layer that covers the peripheral side surface of the sealing resin layer. In this case, even if the first shield layer cannot be made thick enough for obtaining desired shield characteristics, the second shield layer can provide a thickness corresponding to the insufficient thickness.
