A pressure sensor malfunction determination device for a fuel tank includes a fuel tank that stores fuel, a canister that absorbs an evaporated fuel gas and includes a drain port opened to atmosphere, an evaporation path communicating with the canister and fuel tank, a purge gas path communicating with an engine inlet system and the canister, a pressure sensor that detects a pressure, a solenoid valve that opens/closes the evaporation path, and a control unit that controls an opening/closing state of the solenoid valve. When the fuel tank pressure is one of predetermined positive and negative pressure states, the control unit performs valve-opening control on the solenoid valve. The control unit includes a pressure sensor malfunction determination unit that, when an output value of the pressure sensor detected under an atmospheric pressure condition corresponds to a pressure other than the atmospheric pressure, determines that the pressure sensor is malfunctioning.
