To provide a structure for mounting a fuel tank on a vehicle body, the structure being configured so that, independent of whether pressure within the fuel tank changes to positive or negative, the structure is capable of preventing the harmful deformation of the fuel tank which impairs the function of the fuel tank. A structure for mounting a fuel tank on a vehicle body is configured so as to comprise: a band lower part (10L) which is affixed to the vehicle body, extends along at least the lower wall (19L) of the fuel tank (1), and holds the fuel tank (1); a lower wall joining means (40) which joins at least one portion of the lower wall (19L) of the fuel tank (1) to the band lower part (10L); a holding member (50) which is affixed to the vehicle body side and which holds the fuel tank (1); and an upper wall joining means (40) which joins at least one portion of the upper wall (19U) of the fuel tank (1) to the holding member.
