The present invention relates to a data recording function test method and system of a fee-controlled electric energy meter. The method includes the following steps that: a first recording command which indicates that a data recording identifier is invalid is sent to the fee-controlled electric energy meter, first type execution information of the fee-controlled electric energy meter for the first recording command is obtained; whether the response function of the fee-controlled electric energy meter for the first recording command is qualified is judged; a second recording command which indicates a data recording identifier is valid is sent to the fee-controlled electric energy meter, wherein the second recording command contains recording frequency information and recording interval time information, second type execution information of the fee-controlled electric energy meter for the second recording command is obtained, and whether the response function of the fee-controlled electric energy meter for the second recording command is qualified is judged; and whether the data recording function of the fee-controlled electric energy meter is qualified is judged according to a judgment result. With the data recording function test method and system of the fee-controlled electric energy meter of the invention adopted, the objective test result of the data recording function of the dual-mode fee-controlled electric energy meter can be obtained.
