Provided are a probe and an apparatus for measuring a thickness of an oxide layer of a fuel rod, capable of testing claddings of inner and outer fuel rods of a nuclear fuel assembly without disassembling the nuclear fuel assembly. The probe includes a fuel rod transfer region on which an eddy current sensor capable of continuously testing claddings of outer fuel rods of a fixed nuclear fuel assembly is mounted. Further, the apparatus includes a frame in which a cylinder driven in upward and downward directions is mounted, a first probe connected to one side of the cylinder in order to test claddings of outer fuel rods of a nuclear fuel assembly, and a second probe connected to the other side of the cylinder in order to test claddings of inner fuel rods of the nuclear fuel assembly.
