To provide a method for producing a conductive film with excellent transparency and conductivity by a simple method suitable for large-area production.A method for producing a conductive film comprising a step of placing a template (B), having openings in a mesh structure running from the side that is to contact a substrate (A) through to the back side, on the surface of the substrate (A), and spreading a dispersion (D) of conductive particles (P) on the surface of the substrate (A) on which the template (B) has been placed, and drying it, thereby forming a mesh-like structure (C) of the conductive particles (P) near the points of contact between the substrate (A) and the template (B), and then removing the template (B) from the substrate (A) to form a mesh-like structure (C) of the conductive particles (P) on the surface of the substrate (A).
