A line-of-sight determination unit of a vehicle alarm apparatus determines the line-of-sight direction, based on a face orientation and a pupil that are included in a captured image of a driver. A driving operation detection unit detects a requested acceleration based on an accelerator operation of the driver, or a turn-signal-lamp switch operation for activating a turn signal lamp of a vehicle. A controller sets an alarm timing, based on an output of the line-of-sight determination unit and an output of the driving operation detection unit. When the requested acceleration that is equal to or more than a predetermined acceleration, or the turn-signal-lamp switch operation is detected, the controller activates an alarm device at a timing more delayed than the alarm timing.
