The invention provides infrared curing powder paint and a preparation method thereof. The infrared curing powder paint comprises, by weight, 50 parts of matrix resin, 12-50 parts of a curing agent, 0.5-5 parts of aliphatic binary acid, 0.5-5 parts of hydroxyl functional hyperbranched resin and 0.5-5 parts of a nano filler. The infrared curing powder paint is prepared by mixing the components, extruding the components by an extruder and tabletting and crushing the components. The infrared curing powder paint has a relatively high infrared absorption rate and is high in curing speed, a coating formed after curing has relatively high crosslinking density, hardness, toughness, adhesive force, solvent resistance, acid and alkali resistance and moisture and heat resistance, and the paint is suitable for coating of heat-sensitive base materials such as wood, engineering plastics, glass and paper.
