A resin composition, comprising: a polyolefin (A); a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVOH) (B) having an ethylene content of 20 to 65 mol% and having a degree of saponification of vinyl acetate units of 96% or more; a higher fatty acid metal salt (C) having 8 to 22 carbon atoms; a conjugated polyene compound (D) having a boiling point of 20° C. or higher; an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (E); and a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (F) having an ethylene content of 68 to 98 mol% and having a degree of saponification of vinyl acetate units of 20% or more, wherein the mass ratio (A:B) of the polyolefin (A) and the EVOH (B) is 60:40 to 99.9: 0.1, the amount of the higher fatty acid metal salts (C) is in the range of 0.0001 to 10 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the total of the polyolefin (A) and the EVOH (B), the amount of conjugated polyene compound (D) is in the range of 0.000001 to 1 part by mass, and the total amount of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (E) and the saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (F) is 0.3 part by mass or more. This enables improvement of poor appearance of a molded article caused by insufficient dispersion of the EVOH (B) at the time of melt molding a resin composition comprising the polyolefin (A) and the EVOH (B).
