Disclosed in the present invention is a chromium-free catalyst for gas-phase fluorination and an application thereof. The precursor of the related chromium-free catalyst for gas-phase fluorination consists of a compound containing iron element, a compound containing rare earth metal element and a compound containing element A, wherein element A is one selected from Ca, Al, Mg and Ti, the precursor is subjected to calcination and fluorination treatment to obtain the chromium-free catalyst for gas-phase fluorination. The precursor of the catalyst is calcined at 400-500° C. and fluorinated with hydrogen fluoride at 350-450° C. to obtain the chromium-free fluorinated catalyst. The catalyst has characteristics of being chromium-free and environment-friendly, good catalytic activity and long life etc. The catalyst can be used for preparing hydrofluoroolefins or hydrochlorofluoroolefins from halohydrocarbons.
