We report a search for the rare charmless decay B+ → K¯*0K*+ using a data sample of 772 × 106 BB¯ pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e collider. Here, no statistically significant signal is found and a 90% confidence-level upper limit is set on the decay branching fraction of B(B+ → K¯K*0K*+) < 1.31 × 10–6.
