The present invention relates to a congestion control method for a Mobility Management Entity (MME) in a mobile communication system. The method includes: receiving a mobility management request signal from a user equipment (UE) having Packet Data Network (PDN) connections for at least one Access Point Name (APN); checking whether the APN is in a congested state; and rejecting, when a specific APN is in a congested state, the mobility management request.
