A light-scattering substrate having an irregular shape on one surface thereof is provided, the light-scattering substrate including: a thermoplastic resin; and at least one kind of transparent particles having a mean primary particle size of 3 μm or more and not more than 12 μm, wherein the light-scattering substrate contains a first region having a thickness of ½ or more times and not more than 4 times the mean primary particle size of the transparent particles from the surface having an irregular shape; and a second region having a thickness of 3/2 or more times the mean primary particle size of the transparent particles from a surface on back side of the surface having an irregular shape, and the first region and the second region have a region not substantially containing the transparent particle.
