PURPOSE: To provide a thermal transfer recording image receiving sheet in which transfer density, image uniformity and image preservability are improved and trouble due to fusion to a thermal transfer recording ink sheet is prevented at the time of image formation.
CONSTITUTION: In a thermal transfer recording image receiving sheet provided, on the support, with a thermally dispersible coloring matter receiving layer containing at least a metal ion containing compound and a layer containing the thermally dispersible coloring matter, which react with the metal ion containing compound to form a chelate, superposed on a thermal transfer ink sheet applied on the basic material and heated according to a recording signal to form an image, an intermediate layer is provided between the support and the thermally dispersible coloring matter receiving layer.
