Provided is a thermal transfer sheet that can suppress thermal fusion of the thermal transfer sheet and a transfer-receiving article and can improve the durability of a printed article obtained by transferring a transfer layer onto the transfer-receiving article, even if energy applied to the thermal transfer sheet was increased upon transferring the transfer layer onto the transfer-receiving article. This thermal transfer sheet 100 comprises a thermal transfer layer 10 on one surface of a substrate 1. The transfer layer 10 comprises one or more layers, and among the layers constituting the transfer layer 10, the layer closest to the substrate 1 contains a copolymer of isobutyl (meth)acrylate and a monomer having a carboxyl group, and the acid value of the copolymer is not less than 40 mg KOH/g.

A thermosensitive recording medium including a base and a recording layer including a photothermal conversion material and disposed on the base, wherein the thermosensitive recording medium is configured to record information in the thermosensitive recording medium through laser light irradiation, and wherein a color difference delta E between a color tone A of a background observed through the thermosensitive recording medium in which information is not recorded and a color tone B of the background directly observed without the thermosensitive recording medium in which information is not recorded is 20 or less, and a film thickness D of an area of the recording layer irradiated with laser light after information recording performed by laser light irradiation is 140% or greater but 250% or less relative to a film thickness C of the recording layer of the thermosensitive recording medium in which information is not recorded.
