A fiber laser device capable of restraining variations of the rise time of output laser light while shortening the rise time of the output laser light is provided. A fiber laser device (100) includes a seed laser light source (10), a pumping light source (20), an amplification optical fiber (30), a control unit (60), and an output instructing unit (65). When an output instruction is input to the control unit (60), the control unit (60) controls the seed laser light source (10) and the pumping light source (20) to be either in a pre-pumped state or in an output state. In the pre-pumped state, the pumping light source (20) outputs, for a predetermined period, pumping light with an intensity determined based on the duration of the period of time from when the output state prior to the input of the output instruction to the control unit (60) comes to an end till when the output instruction is input to the control unit (60). In the output state, to cause the output unit (50) to output laser light, the seed laser light source (10) outputs laser light, and the pumping light source (20) outputs pumping light. |
