1. A charging rule binding method, wherein the method comprises:
determining, by a policy control network element, a first policy and charging control (PCC) rule corresponding to a time sensitive service, wherein the first PCC rule needs to be bound to a quality of service (QoS) flow, and no other PCC rule is bound to the QoS flow; and
sending, by the policy control network element, the first PCC rule to a session management network element, wherein the first PCC rule comprises indication information, wherein the indication information indicates that the first PCC rule corresponds to the time sensitive service;
receiving, by the session management network element, the first PCC rule from the policy control network element; and
binding, by the session management network element, the first PCC rule to the QoS flow.
