Spherical polyester-based resin particles characterized in that the spherical polyester-based resin particles contain a polyester-based resin and have a crystallinity of 20% or less and an average circularity of 0.96 or more. The spherical polyester-based resin particles according to the present invention can provide suitable resin particles as compounding agents for cosmetics such as foundation, antiperspirants, and skin scrubs; various agents such as matte coating agents for paints, rheology modifying agents, antiblocking agents, slipperiness-imparting agents, light diffusion agents, electroconductive agents, and diagnostic testing agents for medical use; and additives to molded articles such as automobile materials and construction materials.
