The present invention relates to a process for producing a tertiary amine in the presence of a catalyst containing copper and at least one element selected from the group consisting of elements belonging to Groups 2, 3, 7 and 12 of the Periodic Table (long form of the periodic table), said process including the steps of (a) reducing an amide compound in a hydrogen atmosphere; and (b) introducing a dialkyl amine containing a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms into a reaction product obtained in the step (a), and treating the reaction product with the dialkyl amine. The present invention provides a process for producing high-purity aliphatic tertiary amines containing a less amount of by-products by reducing aliphatic acid amides under moderate conditions using a chromium-free catalyst, as well as a process for producing amine derivatives such as amine oxide by using the aliphatic tertiary amines, with a good productivity in an economical manner.
