There is provided a novel fluorine-containing polymer having an acid-reactive group which has a high transparency against energy rays (radioactive rays) in a vacuum ultraviolet region (157 nm), and further there are provided a material for fluorine-containing base polymer prepared from the polymer and suitable for a photoresist and a chemically amplifying type resist composition obtained therefrom. The polymer has a number average molecular weight of from 1,000 to 1,000,000 and represented by the formula: -(M1)-(M2)-(A)-, wherein M1 is a structural unit having an acid-labile or acid-degradable functional group, M2 is a structural unit of fluorine-containing acryl ester, A is a structural unit derived from other copolymerizable monomer, the percent by mole ratio M1/M2 is 1 to 99/99 to 1 and the polymer comprises from 1 to 99% by mole of the structural unit M1, from 1 to 99% by mole of the structural unit M2 and from 0 to 98% by mole of the structural unit A1. The material for fluorine-containing base polymer comprises a fluorine-containing polymer having an acid-reactive group such as the above-mentioned polymer and is suitable for a photoresist, and the chemically amplifying type resist composition is obtained from those polymer and material.
