The present invention discloses a method for changing an association ID in a wireless communication system and an apparatus therefor. Specifically, a method for changing an association identification (AID) of a first station (STA) communicating directly with a second STA in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving, from an access point (AP), a reassignment response frame containing new AID information to be newly allocated to the first STA; the first STA transmitting an update request frame containing the new AID information to the second STA; and as a response to the update request frame, receiving an update response frame from the second STA.
