<p>A process for hydrocracking wax which comprises hydrocracking a raw material wax and subjecting an uncracked wax fraction formed by the hydrocracking to hydrocracking again, characterized in that a mixture of the raw material wax and the uncracked wax fraction is hydrocracked in the presence of a hydrocracking catalyst in such a way that the conversion of the wax fraction having a boiling point of 360°C or above into a light oil fraction having a boiling point lower than 360°C falls within the range of 50 to 85% by mass. In hydrocracking uncracked wax by a bottom recycling method, the process simultaneously attains enhancement in the yield of objective middle cuts and reduction in the content of n-paraffins in middle cuts.</p>
