The present invention provides an optical waveguide device for optical wiring, and a manufacturing method therefor, which provides the advantages that simple and highly accurate connection is possible, the device is low in cost, and it is easily manipulated.The present invention is provided with connectors which are connected to optical fibers in a nonalignment via guide pins, and a polymeric waveguide comprising a film-shaped optical waveguide; the connectors are joined to both ends or to one end of the polymeric waveguide, and the connectors are formed by two connector parts which are arranged in facing position, and in the surfaces of the connector parts which are in facing position, a polymeric waveguide loading groove for loading the polymeric waveguide, and two guide pin loading grooves for loading guide pins are formed, and the polymeric waveguide is sandwiched between the two connector parts, and the polymeric waveguide is joined with the two connector parts and made unitary.By means of this, it is possible to easily conduct connection with optical fibers, and optical devices, planar optical waveguides, and optical fibers and the like can be connected easily and with a high degree of accuracy. Moreover, the construction is simple, so that it is possible to realize a reduction in cost, and it is possible to increase the ease of manipulation.
