A method for producing polyarylene sulfide of the present invention includes the steps of: supplying reaction raw materials to at least one of a plurality of reaction vessels mutually communicated through a gas phase; carrying out a polymerization reaction; and removing at least some of the water present in the reaction vessels. Each of the steps is carried out in parallel, and a reaction mixture is transferred sequentially between the reaction vessels. At that time, the amount of heat that is removed in the polymerization reaction is less than the amount of reaction heat of the polymerization reaction.
