A batch type apparatus for producing a liquid crystalline polymer includes a reactor, a first gas-pressurizing unit, a die-head, a shut-off valve, and a die-plate. The reactor produces a liquid crystalline polymer capable of forming an anisotropic melt phase. The reactor has a discharge port at a lower portion thereof. The first gas-pressurizing unit is attached to the reactor for discharging under pressure the liquid crystalline polymer by use of an inert gas. The die-head includes, at one end portion thereof, a discharge valve which opens and closes the discharge port; at a middle portion thereof, an internal chamber which communicates with the discharge port and is heated and regulated from the peripheral surface thereof; and at the other end portion thereof, an opening which forms an end portion of the internal chamber. The shut-off valve is connected to the other end portion of the die-head and capable of opening and closing the opening. The die-plate is disposed at the opening of the shut-off valve.
