The etching processing method is characterized in that, when performing an etching processing on a resin member by using a desmear liquid containing an alkaline permanganate etching liquid, the etching processing is performed by dipping the resin member into the desmear liquid of which an etching rate for a resin forming the resin member is adjusted by using at least one of an accelerator for accelerating the etching rate of the desmear liquid and a suppressor for suppressing the etching rate.
