Abstract: In this paper, we study the implications of the modular $A_4^{}$ flavor symmetry in constructing a supersymmetric minimal type-(I+II) seesaw model, in which only one right-handed neutrino and two Higgs triplets are introduced to account for the tiny neutrino masses, flavor mixing and CP violation. The right-handed neutrino as well as the Higgs triplets in this model are assigned into the trivial one-dimensional irreducible representation of the modular group $A_4^{}$. We show that the individual contributions to the neutrino masses from the right-handed neutrino and the Higgs triplet are comparable. We also find that the neutrino mass matrix can possess an approximate $mu-au$ reflection symmetry for some specific values of free model parameters. Moreover, our model predicts relatively large masses of three light neutrinos, thus can be easily tested in future neutrino experiments.
