Provided is a treatment solution for chromium-free tension coating that can simultaneously achieve excellent moisture absorption resistance and a high iron loss reduction effect obtained by imparting sufficient tension, by using an inexpensive Ti source instead of expensive Ti chelate. The treatment solution for chromium-free tension coating contains: one or more of phosphates of Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr, Zn, Al, and Mn; colloidal silica in an amount of 50 parts by mass to 120 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the phosphate in terms of solid content of SiO2; Ti source in an amount of 30 parts by mass to 50 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the phosphate in terms of solid content of TiO2; and H3PO4, and the number of moles of metallic elements in the phosphate and of phosphorus in the treatment solution satisfy: 0.20≤([Mg]+[Ca]+[Ba]+[Sr]+[Zn]+[Mn]+1.5[Al])/[P]≤0.45  (1).
