Decorative sheet for vacuum forming and decorative member

A method for producing a decorative sheet for vacuum forming, the method comprising:

• a design layer forming step of forming a design layer on one surface of a first vinyl chloride based resin layer;
• a disposing step of disposing a second vinyl chloride based resin layer on a surface of the design layer that is opposite side to the first vinyl chloride based resin layer;
• and
• a surface protective layer forming step of forming a surface protective layer on a surface of the second vinyl chloride based resin layer that is opposite side to the design layer, wherein
• the first vinyl chloride based resin layer and the second vinyl chloride based resin layer respectively include vinyl chloride based resin and aliphatic dibasic acid based plasticizer;
• a nanoindentation hardness of the first vinyl chloride based resin layer, in a cross-section in a thickness direction, is 160 MPa or less;
• and
• a nanoindentation hardness of the second vinyl chloride based resin layer, in a cross-section in a thickness direction, is 165 MPa or more.
