A method for producing a thermoplastic resin container for which completion of a retort processing can be confirmed, characterized in that an intermediate body is formed by stretch blow molding of a preform made of a thermoplastic resin, the intermediate body is heated to cause heat shrinkage, the container is formed by performing secondary stretch blow molding of the intermediate body in such a manner that a transparent or translucent part that is not stretched or is insufficiently stretched rapidly cooled is formed at a part of the intermediate body, a content is packed and sealed in the container, and then, the part that is not stretched or is insufficiently stretched is turned into a whitened part by heating in a retort processing to form a retort processing completion confirming part.
