A process for the preparation of 3-aminomethyl-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexylamine having a cis/trans isomer ratio of at least 70:30 by a) imination of 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexanone with ammonia in the presence of an imination catalyst at temperatures of from 20 DEG to 150 DEG C. and pressures of from 1.5 to 30 MPa to form 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclo-hexanone imine followed by b) hydrogenation of the 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexanone imine in the presence of ammonia over a catalyst containing copper and/or a Group VIII metal at a temperature of from 80 DEG to 160 DEG C. and under a pressure of from 5 to 30 MPa, wherein the catalytic hydrogenation of the 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexanone imine is carried out in the presence of an acid used in an amount such as to give an acid number of from 0.1 to 2, based on 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexanone used.
