A light-transmitting electromagnetic wave shielding film which is a conductive silver thin film with a metallic silver portion formed on a support in a meshy state, wherein the metallic silver portion formed in the meshy state has a line width of 18 μm or less, an opening rate of 85% or more, an Ag content of 80 to 100% by mass and a surface resistance value of 5 Ω/sq or less. This light-transmitting electromagnetic wave shielding film has characteristic features that it has a high electromagnetic wave shielding property and a high transparency at the same time and the meshy portion is black.
