An object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition that can produce a foam molded body having a beautiful appearance while exhibiting excellent mechanical properties. The above object is achieved by a resin composition for producing foam particles, the resin composition comprising a base resin containing a polycarbonate resin having a glass transition temperature of 140 to 155° C. and an amorphous polyester resin having a glass transition temperature of 100 to 130° C., and the amorphous polyester containing a unit derived from a cyclic diol.
