A method for producing a nanoparticle for forming a CZTS compound semiconductor thin film is provided which includes the step of reacting a solution including a metal salt or a metal complex with a solution including a chalcogenide salt to produce a CZTS compound nanoparticle. A CZTS compound semiconductor thin film is formed by coating or printing the nanoparticle for forming the CZTS compound semiconductor thin film, and subjecting it to a heat treatment. A solar cell including the CZTS compound semiconductor thin film as the light-absorbing layer (103) is provided.
