Provided are a pneumatic tire where a surface fastener can be mounted on a tire inner surface during a tire molding process and the surface fastener falling off during the tire molding process can be prevented effectively and a manufacturing method thereof. A band-shaped surface fastener extending in a tire circumferential direction is mounted on a tire inner surface, a cut portion composed of a group of a plurality of notches extending in a width direction of this surface fastener without traversing this surface fastener is formed in this surface fastener repetitively along the tire circumferential direction, the surface fastener is divided into a plurality of components by these notches, and the surface fastener is disposed on the tire inner surface in a state where the cut portion is stretched so the components are continuous in the tire circumferential direction.
