Heavy metal pollution of soil restricts the sustainable use of land and poses risks to human health throughout the world. Changes in the physicochemical properties of soil may increase the mobility of heavy metals in the soil ecosystem and lead to groundwater pollution. In this study, the effects of different salt solutions (NaCl, CaCl<sub>2</sub>, NaNO<sub>3</sub>, MgCl<sub>2</sub>, Na<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>, and mixed salts) on the release of Cd from soil were investigated by batch desorption tests and the Freundlich isothermal sorption model. Increased concentrations of the salts, except for NaNO<sub>3</sub>, significantly promoted Cd release (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> > 0.9, <i>p</i> < 0.01). Under the salt stress, Cd release from the test soils was promoted more by CaCl<sub>2</sub> and MgCl<sub>2</sub> than by the other salts, and the average desorption rates of eight soil samples at 3.5% salt concentration were 11.15% and 10.80%, respectively, which were much higher than those of NaCl (4.05%), Na<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> (0.41%), and NaNO<sub>3</sub> (0.33%). Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Mg<sup>2+</sup> showed better ion exchange capacity than Na<sup>+</sup> to promote Cd release; for anions, Cl<sup>−</sup> formed hydrophilic Cd chloride complexes with Cd in soil. In addition, principal component analysis results revealed that Cd release was mainly influenced by soil texture, cation exchange capacity, and iron–manganese oxide content of the soil. The Cd release level for different soil samples was most closely related to the proportion of fine particles in the soil. The higher the clay content was, the higher the Cd desorption rate.
