The object of the present invention is to provide a solder paste that enables to form a surface mounting structure for electronic components that exhibits crack resistance in a solder joint section even in 100 heat-shock cycles at −40° C. to 150° C. as required for use in the vicinity of engines for vehicular applications. A flux including an amine halogen salt and a dicarboxylic acid is kneaded with a Sn—Ag—Bi—In alloy powder. As a result, a solder paste exhibiting long continuous printability, little occurrence of solder balls, and excellent joining ability with no cracking in 100 heat-shock cycles at −40° C. to 150° C. is obtained.
