Provided is a method for producing a seamless tube, in which after a starting material to be extruded has been heated to a heating temperature T [° C.] satisfying the relationship of Formula (1) or Formula (2) depending on the outside diameter d0 [mm] thereof, the starting material is hot extruded by providing a solid lubricating glass between the starting material to be extruded and a die, whereby a transverse flaw on the outer surface in the top portion of tube can be prevented when hot extrusion is performed by using a starting material for extrusion having low deformability at high temperatures. When d0
