The invention discloses a radio frequency identification tag and a manufacturing method thereof. The radio frequency identification tag comprises a face layer, a thermal contraction layer, a release layer, a fragile radio frequency identification layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the face layer, the thermal contraction layer, the release layer, the fragile radio frequency identification layer and the adhesive layer are sequentially and mutually composite. The thermal contraction layer is made of thermal contraction polyvinylchloride, thermal contraction polyethylene glycol terephthalate, thermal contraction polyethylene, multi-layer coextrusion polyolefin, directional polystyrene, thermal contraction polypropylene or thermal contraction biaxially oriented polypropylene. Due to the thermal contraction layer, the radio frequency identification tag can be prevented from being recycled again; due to the release layer contained in the tag, when the tag is torn off, the fragile radio frequency identification layer can be separated from the face layer and the contraction layer and is left on the surface of an adherend, integrity of the tag is broken and the effect of preventing the tag from being recycled is achieved.
