Disclosed herein is an apparatus for applying a sealant to an inner side of a tire. The apparatus includes: a feeding conveyor feeding a tire to the apparatus; a primary centering unit for primarily centering the tire fed by the feeding conveyor; a secondary centering unit for setting an accurate position of the tire having passed through the primary centering unit; a turning unit for receiving the centered horizontal tire from the secondary centering unit and rotating the tire by 90 degrees; a sealant application robot provided with a sealant application nozzle entering the tire rotated by 90 degrees in the turning unit; a rotating unit for rotating the tire with the sealant application nozzle placed inside the tire; a forward/rearward drive unit for moving, toward the secondary centering unit, a tire inside of which the sealant discharged through the sealant application nozzle of the sealant application robot has been completely applied to while the tire is rotated by the rotating unit; and a discharge conveyor for discharging the tire to which the sealant has been completely applied. The apparatus can provide a safety tire by allowing a punctured portion to be automatically filled with a sealant when the tire is punctured by a sharp object such as a nail during travel.
