The invention relates to a composite molecular sieve catalyst for preparing high-octane gasoline. The catalyst comprises 5-60 parts by weight of molecular sieve dry basis, and the molecular sieve comprises 1-45% of BETA molecular sieve, 1-40% of ZSM-5 molecular sieve, and the balance being clay and other molecular sieves selected from one or more of EU-1, NU-87, SAPO-11, L, and the ITQ, MCM-22, MCM-49, MCM-56, USY and REUSY according to 100%; and a compound A containing the BETA molecular sieve and a compound B containing the ZSM-5 molecular sieve are respectively prepared and are mixed according to the weight ratio of 1:0.1 to 10 to obtain the composite molecular sieve catalyst. In a catalytic cracking unit, the catalyst is used as an addition agent to be mixed with a main catalyst to prepare high-octane gasoline, the gasoline production rate is high, and the production rate of liquefied petroleum can be flexibly adjusted.
