To provide an epoxide-production-use catalyst that is suitably used for producing an epoxide by partial oxidation of an unsaturated hydrocarbon, a catalyst in accordance with the present invention is obtained by fixing gold fine particles to a carrier containing an oxide containing at least one of titanium and zirconium, and has an acid quantity of not more than 0.1 mmol/g determined by the NH3-TPD method. Such a catalyst for epoxide producing use can be produced by, for instance, fixing gold fine particles to a carrier having an acid quantity of not more than 0.15 mmol/g. The catalyst for epoxide producing use arranged as above is preferably used as a catalyst in partial oxidation of an unsaturated hydrocarbon to produce a corresponding epoxide.
