Disclosed is a photoresist stripping solution consisting essentially of (a) a quaternary ammonium hydroxide (e.g., tetramethylammonium hydroxide), (b) at least one water-soluble organic solvent selected from glycols and glycol ethers (e.g., propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether), and (c) a non-amine water-soluble organic solvent (e.g., dimethyl sulfoxide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone). The photoresist stripping solution of the invention has an excellent photoresist strippability, not causing damage of swelling/coloration to acrylic transparent films used in production of liquid-crystal panels and not causing damage to electrode materials. In particular, it has an excellent photoresist strippability to remove even a thick-film negative photoresist (photosensitive dry film) used in production of semiconductor chip packages (especially, wafer-level chip size packages, W-CSP), not causing damage to copper.
