Provided is a low-cost transparent conductive film which has high optical transparency and excellent surface conductivity and surface smoothness. A method for manufacturing such transparent conductive film is also provided. The transparent conductive film has, on a transparent base material, a conductive fiber layer which includes at least a transparent resin and a conductive fiber. At least a part of the conductive fiber is exposed from the surface of the transparent conductive film, and the relationship between the surface roughness (Rz) of the transparent conductive film and the average diameter (D) of the conductive fiber satisfies the inequalities of 0
