The dc-current-induced optical second-harmonic generation is observed at the surface of centrosymmetric single crystal of Si. Surface dc-current with density up to $\textit{j}_{max} \sim 10^{3}$ A/cm$^{2}$ results in break of inversion symmetry of Si and induces optical second-harmonic generation with intensity that corresponds to the appearance of dipole second-order susceptibility $χ^{(2)d}(j_{max})\sim 3 \cdot 10^{-15}$m/V.
