A method for producing resin particles includes: mixing a binder resin and a dye at temperature T that satisfies formula (1) below to thereby obtain a mixture; and emulsifying the mixture, a basic compound, a water-based solvent, and a surfactant to thereby obtain a resin base particle dispersion:


the melting point T1 of the dye≤the temperature T≤the thermal decomposition temperature T2 of the binder resin.  Formula (1)
