Abstract: An aromatic polycarbonate resin granule formed of an aggregate of fine powder particles, the granule having a specific surface area of 0.05 to 2.0 m.sup.2 /g, a bulk density of 0.3 to 0.8 g/ml, and an average particle diameter of 0.2 to 5 mm. At least 90% of the fine powder particles forming the granule have a particle diameter of 50 .mu.m or less, and the content of a halogenated hydrocarbon as an organic solvent in the granule is 50 ppm or less in terms of a halogen amount. The polycarbonate granule is obtained by preparing a slurry or wet paste containing a polycarbonate, in which the amount of an organic solvent based on the total amount of the polycarbonate and the organic solvent is 10 to 65% by weight, and the amount of water based on the polycarbonate is at least 5% by weight. The above slurry or wet paste is subjected to a pulverization step to form the fine powder particles in which at least 90% have a particle diameter of 50 .mu.m or less.
