The present invention relates to a method and device for transmitting or receiving a broadcast service including a packet, which is generated using an application layer forward error correction (AL-FEC) scheme, in a multimedia service system. An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for transmitting a broadcast service by a transmitter, the method comprising the steps of: determining one forward error correction (FEC) scheme for a broadcast service among multiple FEC schemes; configuring a signaling message so as to include an identifier indicating the determined FEC scheme; and transmitting the configured signaling message.
