The present invention provides a receiving paper for melt-type heat transfer recording suitable for use in, for example, a copying machine, a printer and a fascimile machine employing heat transfer recording system using heat meltable ink, which paper is excellent in ink receptivity and dot reproducibility and high in performance and quality in recorded image. The receiving paper of the present invention for melt-type heat transfer recording comprises a base paper and an image receiving layer thereon, the receiving layer containing a binder and a pigment and receiving a heat-meltable ink, wherein the receiving layer contains spherical precipitated calcium carbonate having an average particle diameter of 0.5 to 10 .mu.m as a pigment, and wherein the surface of the receiving layer has a surface roughness (Rmax) of 0 to 15 .mu.m as measured according to JIS K 0601, a pore open area ratio of 30 to 85% and an average pore open area of 0.5 to 20.0 .mu.m.sup.2.
