[Problem] To provide an excellent release film for producing a ceramic green sheet, the release film being capable of attaining both satisfactorily suitability for winding and prevention of pinholes, local thickness unevenness, etc., even when forming a ceramic green sheet having a reduced thickness. [Solution] A release film for producing a ceramic green sheet, the release film comprising a substrate that is a polyester film containing substantially no particles, a release coating layer formed on one surface of the substrate, and an easy-to-slip coating layer formed on the other surface and containing particles, wherein the easy-to-slip coating layer has an average surface region roughness (Sa) of 1-25 nm, a maximum projection height (P) of 60-500 nm, and an average roughness-curve-element length (RSm) of 10 µm or less.
