Provided is a copper-clad laminate comprising a metal conductor layer formed by dry plating and/or wet plating on a surface obtained by subjecting a surface of a liquid crystal polymer film to plasma treatment in an oxygen atmosphere or a nitrogen atmosphere at a gas pressure of 2.6 to 15 Pa. Further provided is a copper-clad laminate comprising a liquid crystal polymer film having a surface roughness after the plasma treatment of 0.15 μm or less in terms of arithmetic mean roughness Ra and 0.20 μm or less in terms of root-mean-square roughness Rq. Further provided is a method for manufacturing a copper-clad laminate, wherein a metal conductor layer is formed by dry plating and/or wet plating after subjecting a surface of a liquid crystal polymer film to plasma treatment in an oxygen atmosphere or a nitrogen atmosphere at a gas pressure of 2.6 to 15 Pa.
