To provide a simple, industrially advantageous method for producing isobornyl acrylamide useful as a raw material for inks, coating materials, adhesives and the like in a high yield without requiring a measure to dispose of a large amount of waste due to the use of concentrated sulfuric acid, the production of drainage of the salt formed in its neutralization and the like.

Isobornyl acrylamide is produced by reacting acrylonitrile with camphene in the presence of a strongly acidic cation exchange resin and water, preferably 5-25 g of the strongly acidic cation exchange resin per 1.0 mol acrylonitrile and 0.8-1.2 mol water per 1.0 mol camphene at 110-160°C for 1-24 hours.
