The invention discloses an extraction washing method for low-chlorine-ion high-purity cobaltous sulfate. The extraction washing method comprises the following steps that firstly, cobalt containing rawmaterials are subjected to leaching and P204 extraction and impurity removal through a conventional method, raffinate is obtained, an organic extraction agent and sulfonated kerosene are mixed, and counter-current extraction is conducted through an extraction box; secondly, a loaded organic phase enters an extraction washing section for counter-current washing, hydrochloric acid is used for washing a small number of nickel, magnesium and calcium impurities in the organic phase, and the obtained washed loaded organic phase is subjected to washing and chlorine ion removal; and thirdly, second-section washing is conducted, the washed loaded organic phase in the second step enters second-section washing and is subjected to counter-current chlorine ion washing, sulfuric acid is added for washing, the PH value is controlled, and the obtained washed loaded organic phase is subjected to reverse extraction through sulfuric acid. The problem that cobaltous sulfate products are high in impurityor chlorine ion content is solved, the purity of the cobaltous sulfate products is improved, the quality of raw materials of the battery positive electrode material precursor is guaranteed, the two-section washing manner is adopted, the chlorine ion washing effect is achieved, magnesium calcium sulfate sediments cannot be formed, so that extraction tank blockage is avoided
