A method is provided for producing a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) sheet of a nonwoven fabric substrate, whereby the inherent performance of the PSA is more fully exploited using an aqueous dispersion-type PSA composition. This method comprises preparing an aqueous dispersion-type PSA composition and a nonwoven fabric substrate serving as a support. The method also comprises forming PSA layers which impregnate the substrate and which are obtained by drying the composition. These PSA layers impregnate the substrate so that the area of gaps observed in a vertical cross-section perpendicular to the machine direction of the substrate is about 500 μm2/400 μm or less.
