Abstract: A method for producing a multiple preform, including a primary injection for injection molding a preform main body using a primary mold, and a secondary injection for injection molding, using a secondary mold, a covering layer that covers the preform main body such that the terminal end side of the covering layer covers the lower surface of the neck ring and reaches the peripheral edge of the neck ring. A projection strip portion is formed when the preform main body is inserted into the secondary mold to be clamped, that projects in a gap in which the covering layer is molded to be in contact with or adjacent to a lower surface of the neck ring, and that extends with a given length along an axis direction, is formed on an inner peripheral surface of the secondary molding mold, thereby forming an easy tear portion in the covering layer.
