Disclosed is a bipolar plate for a fuel cell including a bipolar plate substrate; and a byproduct-decomposing layer covering the bipolar plate substrate, the bipolar plate has channels for transport of a reactant gas, the channels being arranged on a surface of the bipolar plate substrate, and the bipolar plate has a first side to face an anode catalyst layer of the fuel cell and a second side to face a cathode catalyst layer of the fuel cell. The byproduct-decomposing layer is arranged on at least one of the first side and the second side, includes a catalyst, and is capable of decomposing a byproduct formed as a result of a reaction of the fuel cell. The bipolar plate enables long-term control of discharge of formic acid and other byproducts without deterioration in system efficiency of the fuel cell.
