A method for producing a disposable wearable article is equipped with: a hole-opening step for forming an opening (notch) in an exterior, continuous non-woven fabric, while conveying the exterior, continuous non-woven fabric for serving as an exterior non-woven fabric in the lengthwise direction thereof a first attachment step for attaching a continuous resin sheet for serving as a resin sheet to the skin-surface of the exterior, continuous non-woven fabric after the hole-opening step, and blocking the opening with the continuous resin sheet a step for positioning an absorbent core on the skin-surface of the continuous resin sheet, and obtaining a continuous layered body for serving as an absorbent body a step for cutting the continuous layered body along an imaginary cutting line extending in the widthwise direction perpendicular to the lengthwise direction, in order to obtain absorbent bodies for a plurality of absorbent articles from the continuous layered body and a second attachment step for overlapping and attaching one or more continuous-non-woven-fabric layered bodies for serving as a waist-surrounding member to the non-skin-surface of the exterior non-woven fabric, so as to cover the notch.
