The invention provides an edible collagen food packaging film and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, stirring a 5-30wt% collagen solution and a 0.1-3wt% modifier solution at the temperature of 30-60 DEG C to react for 30-60 minutes, thus obtaining a compound solution; then adding a plasticizer and an auxiliary additive into the compound solution, then continuing to stir for 20-40 minutes at the temperature of 30-60 DEG C so as to obtain a mixed solution; and pouring the mixed solution in a die, molding, drying for 5-15 hours at the temperature of 40-80 DEG C, so as to obtain the edible collagen food packaging film. The edible collagen food packaging film has the advantages of better mechanical property, better heat stability, better moisture barrier property, safety, effectiveness and no side effect; wastes can be degraded and do not cause environment pollution; and the edible collagen food packaging film can be widely applied to the fields of various food packaging and medicament packaging, and has a good market application prospect.
