Disclosed are a system and a method for measuring a magnetorefractive effect of an optical fiber. The system comprises a laser, a coupler A, a sensing optical fiber, a reference optical fiber, a carrier generator, a coupler B, a photoelectric detector and a data acquisition and processing module. The coupler A, the sensing optical fiber, the reference optical fiber and the coupler B form a Mach-Zehnder optical fiber interferometer. An external magnetic field influences the refractive index of the sensing optical fiber, so that the optical path difference between two paths of optical signals in the sensing optical fiber and the reference optical fiber is changed, the intensity of an interference optical signal output by the coupler B is changed, and the refractive index change of the sensing optical fiber under the action of the magnetic field is measured by detecting and processing the interference optical intensity.
