The present disclosure provides a method for producing a high nitrogen steel by a duplex melting process of a pressurized ladle refining and a pressurized electroslag remelting, which relates to the technical field of high nitrogen steel melting. In the present disclosure, the molten steel is subjected in sequence to a nitrogen alloying, a deep deoxidation and a deep desulfurization by adding a nickel-magnesium alloy and rare earth in the pressurized ladle furnace, and a combination of a blowing nitrogen from the bottom of the pressurized ladle and a pressurized nitriding at the interface of gas and the molten steel is used to achieve a high-efficiency nitrogen alloying, a uniform nitrogen distribution, and a decreased impurity content in the ingot; then the ingot is subjected to a pressurized electroslag remelting to obtain a high nitrogen steel.
