Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a stacked layer body including conductive layers stacked to be apart from each other in a first direction, and including a stair-like end with rising parts and terrace parts, wherein successive first conductive layers including an uppermost conductive layer function as select gate lines for a NAND string, and a first contact connected to the uppermost conductive layer provided to correspond to a first rising part which is an uppermost one of the rising parts. The first contact passes through the uppermost conductive layer to be further connected to a first conductive layer adjacent to the uppermost conductive layer.
