A production method of a decorative film comprises a first step of laying a base film of a thermoplastic resin on a pattern layer of a transfer sheet in which the pattern layer is placed on one surface of a carrier film, thermally transferring the pattern layer onto the base film, and thereafter stripping off the carrier film, thereby obtaining a laminate sheet in which the pattern layer is placed on one surface of the base film; and a second step of, in a state in which a transparent resin film is laid on a surface of the laminate sheet on the pattern layer side, inserting the laminate sheet and the transparent resin film into between a pair of endless belts placed opposite each other, and conveying the laminate sheet and the transparent resin film under heat and pressure, thereby obtaining a decorative film in which a transparent resin layer of the transparent resin film is placed on the surface of the laminate sheet on the pattern layer side.
