The present invention discloses an image coding/decoding method and an apparatus for the method. More specifically, a method for filtering an image by a decoding apparatus comprises deriving boundaries of a block divided into quad-tree plus binary-tree structure; determining an edge among boundaries of the block to which de-blocking filtering is applied; determining a type of de-blocking filtering to be applied to the edge; and performing de-blocking filtering to a picture sample restored according to the de-blocking filtering type, wherein the edge or the type of de-blocking filtering is determined by considering width or height of the block.
