A method for fabricating a preform for a plastic optical fiber, having continuous refractive index profile in a radial direction, comprising a firs step of introducing a mixture consisting of at least two substances, each having a different density and refractive index relative to each other, to a cylindrical reactor and polymerizing the mixture in a centrifugal field generated by rotating the reactor; a second step of compensating for a void formed by volume shrinkage from the polymerization in the first step with a mixture consisting of at least two substances, each having a different density and refractive index relative to each other, and polymerizing the mixture in a centrifugal field generated by rotating the reactor, and a third step of repeating the second step until there is no void after polymerization
