The present invention provides a process for producing a transparent heat-resistant gas-barrier film capable of exhibiting a good gas-barrier property and maintaining good properties even after heat-treated at a temperature of 250° C. or higher, in a simple manner at low costs without need of a large size facility and a number of steps. The process for producing a transparent heat-resistant gas-barrier film according to the present invention includes the steps of coating a polysilazane-containing solution onto at least one surface of a transparent polyimide film formed of a polyimide containing a specific repeated unit; and calcining the coated solution at a temperature of 180° C. or higher to laminate a silicon oxide layer obtained by the calcination on the transparent polyimide film.
