The electroless gold plating bath includes i) water-soluble gold compound, ii) complexing agent that stabilizes gold ions in the plating bath, but does not cause substantial dissolution of nickel, cobalt or palladium in the plating bath, and iii) a polyethyleneimine compound. When a material to be plated is subjected to such a gold plating bath, corrosion of the base metal under the surface of the material to be plated is reduced by controlling the substitution reaction rate immediately after initiation of the reaction, and adhesion between the base metal and deposited gold coating is increased.
