Provided is a method for manufacturing a vitreous silica crucible and a manufacturing apparatus for the same, which can reduce the amount of bubbles and impurities of a crucible inner surface and enhance a crystallization yield of silicon single crystal. A method for manufacturing a vitreous silica crucible of the invention includes a silica powder supplying process of supplying silica powder in a rotating mold to form a silica powder layer; an arc fusing process of fusing the silica powder layer by arc discharge generated by carbon electrodes; and a fire polishing process of throwing an arc flame toward a target surface of the silica powder layer for surface removal, wherein, in the fire polishing process, the distances from the tips of the carbon electrodes to the target surface is set to be equal.
