A photothermographic material, including a support having an image forming layer on or above one surface thereof and a non-photosensitive layer on or above the opposite surface thereof, the image forming layer containing at least a photosensitive silver halide, a non-photosensitive organic silver salt, a reducing agent, and a binder, wherein: the binder contains 50% by mass or more of a hydrophilic binder; a ratio of a silver amount to the hydrophilic binder in the image forming layer is 1.0 to 2.5 by mass; a binder in the non-photosensitive layer contains 70% by mass or more of a hydrophilic binder; the image forming layer contains at least one of compounds represented by formulae (I) and (II); and a Bekk smoothness is 1000 seconds or more on an outside surface at the side having the image forming layer, while a Bekk smoothness is 5 to 400 seconds on an outside surface at the side having the non-photosensitive layer.
