A method for producing a conductive film having a substrate and a conductive layer disposed on the substrate has a first step of forming a precursor layer on the substrate, the precursor layer including a metal component or its precursor, a water-insoluble polymer X having a cross-linking group, a water-insoluble polymer Y having a reactive group that reacts with the cross-linking group, and a water-soluble polymer Z different from polymer X and polymer Y; a second step of reacting the cross-linking group in the water-insoluble polymer X with the reactive group in the water-insoluble polymer Y; and a third step of forming the conductive layer by removing the water-soluble polymer Z.
