The invention provides a hindered amine light stabilizer intermediate and a preparation method of a hindered amine light stabilizer. The hindered amine light stabilizer intermediate is 2-chloro-4,6-di(N-butyl-N-1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl amino)-1,3,5-triazine, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: in the presence of hydrogen, carrying out hydrogenation substitution reaction on 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidone and n-butyl amine, carrying out substitution reaction on the obtained intermediate 1 and cyanuric chloride to obtain 2-chloro-4,6-di(N-butyl-N-1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl amino)-1,3,5-triazine. Formaldehyde or formic acid does not need to be adopted in the preparation process, the method has the advantages of being small in environmental pollution and equipment corrosion, and after the method is used for reaction preparation of the hindered amine light stabilizer, the target product is high in purity, good in color and luster and short in meltingrange.
