The invention discloses a preparation method of lithium fluorosulfonate, which comprises the following steps: (1) taking metal fluorosulfonate (MFSO3) with the purity of >=98.5% as a raw material, and carrying out metathesis exchange reaction with organic lithium salt in an ester, alcohol, nitrile or amide solvent; (2) generating insoluble organic metal salt precipitate, pumping in vacuum, extracting by using a poor solvent of an organic metal salt, filtering, separating, concentrating under reduced pressure, adding a low-polarity aprotic solvent into the concentrated solution, standing, crystallizing, and carrying out vacuum drying to obtain the high-purity lithium fluorosulfonate product. The preparation method of the high-purity lithium fluorosulfonate is simple in post-reaction treatment method, high in product yield, high in purity and capable of effectively reducing the content of impurities such as potassium ions, sodium ions, calcium ions, chloride ions and moisture in the product. The preparation method provided by the invention has the characteristics of simple operation steps, reasonable production cost, high safety, wide substrate selection range, low cost and high product purity.
