To provide a processing method for a silver halide color photosensitive material in which when continuous processing is carried out under low replenishment conditions, stain attributed to a sensitizing dye is reduced, excellent white background stability and image preservability are ensured, precipitation, and occurrence and accumulation of sludge are suppressed, and excellent scratch resistance is ensured.

In the processing method for the silver halide color photosensitive material in which the silver halide color photosensitive material having on a support a yellow developing photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer, a magenta developing photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a cyan developing photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer is processed using an automatic processor through a color developing step with a color developing tank, a desilvering step with a desilvering tank and a washing step with a washing tank or a stabilizing step with a stabilizing tank, at least one of the processing tanks is provided with circulation filters and at least one of the circulation filters comprises a zeolite.
