A flowmeter failure determination method includes: a step of measuring a filling amount of hydrogen gas filled in a fuel tank of an automobile, using a flowmeter; a step of acquiring information of a pressure and a temperature of the fuel tank; a step of calculating the filling amount of the hydrogen gas filled in the fuel tank based on the acquired pressure and temperature and a capacity of the fuel tank in which an expansion rate of the fuel tank is considered; and a step of determining presence or absence of a failure of the flowmeter using an error value between the measured filling amount and the calculated filling amount.
