Provided is an adsorption temporary fixing sheet having a sufficient shear adhesive strength in a direction parallel to its surface, having a weak adhesive strength in a direction vertical to the surface, and having excellent antistatic performance. The adsorption temporary fixing sheet includes a foam layer including an open-cell structure, and has a surface resistivity of from 1.0×104 to 1.0×1010Ω/□, wherein, when a silicon chip vertical adhesive strength of a surface of the foam layer after 18 hours at each of such different temperatures as −30° C., 23° C., or 80° C. is represented by V1, V2, or V3 (N/1 cm□), and when a silicon chip shearing adhesive strength of the surface of the foam layer after 18 hours at each of such different temperatures as −30° C., 23° C., or 80° C. is represented by H1, H2, or H3 (N/1 cm□), relationships of V1
