The present invention provides a support for image recording material etc. that can record high-quality images far from occurrences of blister, uneven recording or uneven fixing. In order to attain the object, a support for image recording material is provided that comprises a raw paper, and at least one polyolefin resin layer on both sides of the raw paper, wherein two or more polyolefin resin layers are disposed at the front side where an image recording layer is to be disposed, polypropylene resin is included within at least one polyolefin resin layer at the front side other than the outermost polyolefin resin layer at the front side, and the content A (% by mass) of polypropylene resin within the at least one polyolefin resin layer at the front side other than the outermost polyolefin resin layer is higher than the content B (% by mass) of polypropylene resin within the outermost polyolefin resin layer at the front side. Preferably, the support for image recording material is used for recording an image by way of at least one of recording by heating, development by heating, and fixing by heating.
