Disclosed herein is a process for recovering toluene diisocyanate (TDI) from a TDI residue solution, comprising mixing the residue solution with a polyisocyanate consisting essentially of methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) or MDI in combination with its higher ring oligomer, followed by heating the resulting mixture over a temperature range of 130.degree. to 250.degree. C. for a period of time sufficient to remove free TDI and thermally splittable TDI generated from equilibration of the TDI residue with MDI or the MDI oligomer by either a batch or continuous process.
