The invention relates to the technical field of hot rolling, in particular to a control method for surface oxidation pocking defects of a hot-rolled pickled plate. The control method includes the steps that the chemical components of a steel billet are controlled to include, by mass, 0.05-0.15% of Si, at most 0.01% of P and the balance Mn, Nb, Ti and a Fe substrate. In the heating process of the steel billet, the steel billet with the thickness being 135-250 mm is put into a heating furnace and heated for 160-200 min, and the tapping temperature of the steel billet is controlled to be 1180-1240 DEG C. The thickness of an intermediate billet is controlled to be 26-34 mm after a descaling process. In the precision rolling process, the precision rolling inlet temperature is controlled to be 980-1020 DEG C, and the finish rolling temperature is controlled to be 850-890 DEG C. The control method for surface oxidation pocking defects of the hot-rolled pickled plate can effectively restrain the occurrence of surface oxidation pocking defects of the hot-rolled pickled plate with the thickness being at most 2 mm and the tensile strength being at least 500 MPa.
