To provide a manufacturing method for an epitaxial wafer that alleviates distortions on a back surface thereof due to sticking between a wafer and a susceptor, thereby preventing decrease in flatness thereof due to a lift pin. A manufacturing method for an epitaxial wafer according to the present invention includes: an oxide film forming step in which an oxide film is formed on a back surface thereof; an etching step in which a hydrophobic portion exposing a back surface of the semiconductor wafer is provided by partially removing the oxide film; a wafer placing step in which the semiconductor wafer is placed; and an epitaxial growth step in which an epitaxial layer is grown on a main surface of the semiconductor wafer; and the diameter of the lift pin installation circle provided on a circle on a bottom face of a susceptor is smaller than that of the hydrophobic portion.
