There is provided a method for handover of a terminal in a wireless access system using multi-carrier operation. The method comprises: receiving a handover command message from a serving base station; and performing network reentry to a target base station based on the handover command message, wherein the handover command message includes information required for handover to the target base station and information on whether the target base station supports handover using multi-carriers. Accordingly, it is possible to efficiently perform the handover in the wireless access system supporting the multi-carriers.
