An optical semiconductor element includes a surface-emitting type semiconductor laser with a multilayered structure that emits laser light in a direction vertical to a substrate surface, a photodetecting element with a multilayered structure formed above or below the surface-emitting type semiconductor laser, and an electrostatic breakdown protection element that protects the surface-emitting type semiconductor laser from electrostatic destruction, which are provided on the substrate, wherein a pair of input terminals for driving the surface-emitting type semiconductor laser and a pair of output terminals of the photodetecting element are provided independently of one another.
