PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process for easily and safely producing a 3- hydroxypyridine compound on an industrial scale in high yield. SOLUTION: A 3-hydroxypyridine compound is produced by reacting a furfurylamine compound with hydrogen peroxide while supplying the furfurylamine compound and/or hydrogen peroxide to the reaction system. For example, a 3-hydroxypyridine compound of formula (2) (R1, R2, R3 and R4 are each the same or different H or an alkyl) is produced from a furfurylamine compound of formula (1).
