A solid-state imaging device includes a well formed of a first semiconductor region of a first conductivity type provided in a semiconductor substrate, a pixel provided in the well, and including a photoelectric conversion element, and a transistor including a second semiconductor region of a second conductivity type, a first contact electrode electrically connected to the first semiconductor region, and a second contact electrode electrically connected to the second semiconductor region. The first contact electrode has a contact area to the semiconductor substrate larger than that of the second contact electrode, and has different widths in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction in a planar view. The width of the first contact electrode in the first direction is smaller than a width of the second contact electrode.
