<p>This invention is a plated steel sheet formed by laminating an iron oxide layer and a plated layer on a steel matrix in this order, in which excellent plating adhesion property can uniformly be given to a full surface of the steel sheet by disposing a connection portion made from a metallic iron or an iron alloy connecting the steel matrix to the plated layer in the iron oxide layer. Particularly, it can provide means for easily forming a plated layer having an excellent adhesion property through hot dipping can be given to steel sheets being difficult to conduct the hot dipping such as high-strength steel sheet, stainless steel sheet and the like. <IMAGE></p>
