A polar solvent solution of the present invention is a polar solvent solution in which a solute containing a polyamine acid is dissolved in a polar solvent. An inorganic salt is added to the solution, and a mole ratio of moisture to the inorganic salt in the solution is 2.5×m×n or less, where m represents the number of cations forming the inorganic salt and n represents a charge number of the cation. A production method of the present invention is a method for producing the above solution, including: changing at, least one of a moisture content and a content of the inorganic salt in the solution to adjust a viscosity of the solution. Thus, the present invention provides a polar solvent solution whose viscosity can be easily adjusted to a desired value and thus enables stable spinning and casting when used as dopes for spinning, film, etc., and methods for producing the same.
