Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a catalyst useful to reform dimethyl ether, with which it becomes possible to effectively carry out both of the reforming reaction of dimethyl ether and the CO shift reaction at a low temperature in the absence of other catalyst, and to provide a method of reforming dimethyl ether. SOLUTION: The catalyst useful to reform dimethyl ether, which contains a reforming catalyst component for the dimethyl ether reforming reaction for obtaining hydrogen from dimethyl ether and water and a CO-shift catalyst component for the CO shift reaction for removing CO being a byproduct, is prepared. Reforming of dimethyl ether is performed by using the above catalyst.
