Abstract
The present invention provides a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet capable of forming an image excellent in various types of fastness, particularly in light fastness, maintaining the effect of the ultraviolet absorber during the storage without deterioration and stably existing within a dye-receiving layer through the use of a thermal transfer process wherein use is made of a sublimable dye. The thermal transfer image-receiving sheet of the present invention includes a substrate sheet and a dye-receiving layer formed on at least one surface of the substrate sheet, wherein a layer containing an ultraviolet absorber is provided between the substrate sheet and the dye-receiving layer.
