A thermal transfer sheet for the formation of a color image having a high heat sensitivity and providing a full-color image having good color density and light fastness even when the heat energy applied is low and, at the same time, realizing very excellent reproduction in a wide range of colors. The thermal transfer sheet for the formation of a color image includes a substrate sheet and, formed on one surface of the substrate sheet in a successive manner, dye layers of at least three colors of yellow, magenta and cyan respectively including dyes of three colors of yellow, magenta and cyan and resin binders for respective dyes, wherein the yellow dye is a dye represented by the formulae (1) and/or (2), the magenta dye is at least one member selected from the group consisting of dyes represented by the following formulae (3) to (5) and the cyan dye is a dye represented by the formulae (6) and/or (7).
