Disclosed is a microetching solution, a replenishment solution added to said microetching solution and a method for production of a wiring board using said microetching solution. The microetching solution for copper consists of an aqueous solution containing a cupric ion, an organic acid, a halide ion, a polymer and a nonionic surfactant. The polymer is a water-soluble polymer including a polyamine chain and/or a cationic group and having a weight average molecular weight of 1000 or more. In the microetching solution of the present invention, a value of A/B is 2000 to 9000 and a value of A/D is 500 to 9000, where a concentration of the halide ion is A % by weight, a concentration of the polymer is B % by weight and a concentration of the nonionic surfactant is D % by weight. Using this microetching solution, adhesion to a resin or the like can be uniformly maintained even with a low etching amount.
