The present invention relates to a method for producing a platinum-based alloy powder, the method comprising a heat treatment of a mixed powder containing a platinum-based powder composed of at least one selected from the group consisting of platinum and platinum compound, a platinum group metal-based powder composed of at least one selected from the group consisting of iridium, rhodium, palladium, and compound containing at least one of them, and an alkaline-earth metal compound, wherein specific surface area of the platinum group metal-based powder is 30 m2/g or more and D90 of the mixed powder is 1.0 μm or less. According to the method for producing a platinum-based alloy powder of the invention, it is possible to produce a platinum-based alloy powder that has a desired particle diameter, also has a sharp particle size distribution, and has high purity and crystallinity.
