In a process for producing poly(phenylene sulfide), in which an alkali metal sulfide is reacted with a dihalo-aromatic compound in an organic amide solvent, the reaction is conducted through the following Steps 1 and 2, thereby efficiently providing granular, high-molecular weight poly(phenylene sulfide) having excellent whiteness in a short period of time and at a high yield. Step 1: a step comprising reacting the alkali metal sulfide with the dihalo-aromatic compound within a temperature range of 170-270°C in the organic amide solvent containing water in a proportion of 0.5-2.0 moles per mole of the alkali metal sulfide charged while raising the reaction temperature at an average heating rate of 0.1-1°C/min in at least a temperature range of from 220°C to 240°C after raised to 220°C, so as to give a conversion of the dihalo-aromatic compound of 70-98 mol%, thereby forming a prepolymer of poly(phenylene sulfide); and Step 2: a step-comprising adding water to the reaction system at a temperature of at least 235°C in such a manner that water is present in a proportion of 2.1-10 moles per mole of the alkali metal sulfide charged, and continuing the reaction for 0.5-10 hours within a temperature range of 245-290°C, thereby converting the prepolymer to high-molecular weight poly(phenylene sulfide).
