An optical module comprises an emitter-side mounting substrate (1), a receiver-side mounting substrate (3) and an external waveguide substrate (2). The mounting substrate (1) is provided with a waveguide (16) having a core (17) and a pair of fitting recesses (13a, 13b). The external waveguide substrate (2) is provided with an external waveguide having a core (21), a pair of fitting tabs (22a, 22b) and a lap joint portion (5). As the fitting tabs (22a, 22b) are fitted into the respective fitting recesses (13a, 13b), the mounting substrate (1) and the external waveguide substrate (2) are joined together, the two cores (17, 21) are aligned with each other, and the lap joint portion (5) is positioned to overlap the mounting substrate (1). Part of the lap joint portion (5) is bonded to the mounting substrate (1) by adhesive in this condition, whereby the mounting substrate (1) and the external waveguide substrate (2) are joined with high bond strength and low risk of an optical axis offset.
