NOVELTY - Preparing glyoxylic acid from methyl glycolate comprises contacting the material containing methyl glycolate and mixed solvent with an oxidation catalyst and a hydrolysis catalyst in the presence of an oxygen source and reacting to obtain glyoxylic acid, where air and/or oxygen are used as the oxygen source, the oxidation catalyst is obtained by supporting a metal on a nitrogen-doped carbon material, the hydrolysis catalyst is a solid acid, and the mixed solvent includes a polar solvent and water. USE - The method is useful for preparing glyoxylic acid from methyl glycolate. ADVANTAGE - The method has low raw material cost, high conversion rate and product selectivity, and mild reaction conditions.
