A method for scrubbing an amine-type extractant, in regeneration of the amine-type extractant supporting a chloro complex ion of a metal such as iron and zinc, which easily accumulates in the amine-type extractant, in a scrubbing stage constituting a solvent extraction step, which method is capable of efficiently removing a chloro complex ion of the metal, as well as capable of regenerating extraction capability of an extractant, so that it can be reused repeatedly as it is in the extraction stage of the solvent extraction step.A method for scrubbing an amine-type extractant (A) containing an amine added with hydrochloric acid, and an amine supporting a metal chloro complex ion, in a scrubbing stage constituting a solvent extraction step, characterized by substituting a chloride ion of the amine, which is added with hydrochloric acid, with sulfuric acid ion, by bringing the amine-type extractant (A) into contact with a sulfuric acid solution with a concentration of 3 to 10 N, and subsequently, by eliminating a metal by bringing the substituted amine-type extractant (B) into contact with water.
