The present invention provides an intermediate transfer member having higher transferability and higher cleaning properties and durability, an apparatus for producing an intermediate transfer member which does not require the provision of any large equipment such as vacuum equipment, and an image forming apparatus comprising the intermediate transfer member. The intermediate transfer member contains a support and, provided on the support, a first inorganic compound layer containing carbon atoms and a second inorganic compound layer as a surface layer, the second inorganic compound layer not containing any carbon atom or containing carbon atoms in a smaller amount than the carbon atoms in the first inorganic compound layer.
