The crucial problems of 3‐D forward modeling using the staggered‐grid finite difference method are described in detail in this paper. They include staggered‐grid, discretization of integral form of Maxwell equation, boundary condition, solving linear algebra equations and calculating 3‐D tensor impedance. Because of giving the more explicit boundary conditions and using Bi‐conjugate gradients stabilized method to solve the linear algebra equation with large coefficient matrix, we get the fast algorithm to calculate effectively the high‐precision electrical and magnetic fields in the whole space. This has been proved by comparing the 3‐D forward modeling solutions with analytic solution to abutting quarter‐spaces, and 2‐D forward modeling to 2‐D prism using 2‐D finite element method. This efficient algorithm has setup basis for doing research on 3‐D inversion.
