The present invention is aimed to provide an industrially advantageous method for producing a furan compound, in which a furan compound can be efficiently obtained in a high selectivity from a furfural compound. The present invention is concerned with a method for producing a furan compound including feeding, as a raw material, a furfural composition containing a furfural compound into a reactor and subjecting to a decarbonylation reaction in the presence of a catalyst to obtain a furan compound as a product, wherein a furfural dimer concentration in the furfural composition is 1,000 ppm by weight or less, and a peroxide value in the furfural composition is 0.01 mEq/kg or more and 1.0 mEq/kg or less.
