A multiple-use thermal image transfer recording method includes the step of transferring a thermal image transfer ink component a plurality of times to an image-receiving medium from at least an identical portion of a thermal image transfer recording medium composed of a support and a thermal image transfer ink layer formed thereon, with the application of heat thereto. The thermal image transfer ink layer is composed of the thermal image transfer ink component mainly containing a coloring agent and a thermofusible material, and a porous resin component which is not thermally transferable, with both components having mutual releasability. The image-receiving medium has a recording surface, with the product of the absorption coefficient (Ka) of the recording surface measured by the Bristow Method (J. TAPPI. No. 51 - 87) at a pressure of 0.1 MPa, using an extra pure liquid paraffin, and the gradient (fc) of a linear portion of a load curve measured by a three-dimensional surface roughness analysis, being in the range of 2.0 to 6.0.
