The main object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a color filter, capable of having the surface of the pixel part flatly even in the case a pixel part is formed by an ink discharging method, and the thickness of each pixel part evenly. In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a color filter comprising at least a pixel part forming process of forming a pixel part of a plurality of colors in a predetermined pattern by adhering an ink on a transparent substrate by a discharging method, and the convex pixel part is formed in the pixel part forming process, wherein a pixel part flattening process of flattening the convex pixel part is executed after the pixel part forming process.
