The present specification relates to a method and an apparatus for controlling downlink HARQ timing. A method for controlling downlink HARQ timing according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: configuring, by a base station, different duplex modes for a PCell and an SCell and transmitting the configuration information to a terminal; transmitting, by the base station, a PDSCH in subframe n−k of the SCell; and receiving, by the base station, HARQ response information from the terminal in subframe n of the PCell by applying a set index associated with downlink HARQ timing corresponding to the configuration information, wherein k has a value of 4-13.
