The present invention is directed to a two-ply tissue paper including a polyol-containing moisturizer and having excellent softness, smoothness, and strength. In various embodiment, the two-ply tissue paper of the present invention has a basis weight of 16.0 to 25.0 g/m2 per ply, a two-ply paper thickness of 145 to 180 μm, a dry tensile strength of 120 to 200 cN/25 mm in a lateral direction, a dry tensile strength of 275 to 450 cN/25 mm in a longitudinal direction, a wet tensile strength of 60 to 130 cN/25 mm in the lateral direction, a difference of 40 cN/25 mm or more between the dry tensile strength in the lateral direction and the wet tensile strength in the lateral direction and a value of (wet tensile strength in lateral direction)/(dry tensile strength in lateral direction) of 0.60 to 0.75, and an elongation percentage of 13.0 to 18.0% in the longitudinal direction.
