An object of the present invention is to provide a solid electrolytic capacitor comprising an anode body composed of a sintered body, in which ESR scarcely increases even after reflow at the time of mounting when compared with that before mounting, and a method for producing the same. Disclosed is a solid electrolytic capacitor comprising an anode body composed of a sintered body, a dielectric layer formed on a surface of the anode body, a semiconductor layer formed on the dielectric layer, wherein the semiconductor layer comprises a layer of a conductive polymer containing a sulfur element and a conductor layer formed on the semiconductor layer, wherein the conductor layer comprises a layer containing silver, wherein the layer containing silver is less than 1.3 ppm by mass in the content of a sulfur element after heat history at 260° C. for 5 seconds.
