The invention provides a cleaning liquid for semiconductor devices which is capable of removing deposits on a surface of an object to be cleaned including a photoresist, an antireflective film, an etching residue and an ashing residue at a low temperature in a short period of time with reduced environmental burdens and without causing corrosion of an interlayer dielectric film, a metal, a metal nitride, and an alloy in the object to be cleaned. The cleaning liquid for semiconductor devices according to the invention contains a reducing agent and a surfactant and has a pH of 10 to 14.
