The Netherlands competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, from 5 to 21 August 2016. Since the nation's official debut in 1900, Dutch athletes had competed at every edition of the Summer Olympic Games in the modern era, with the exception of the sparsely attended 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis and 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne (except the equestrian events in Stockholm), which the Netherlands boycotted because of the Soviet invasion of Hungary.

=Mountain biking=

Dutch mountain bikers qualified for two men's quota places into the Olympic cross-country race, as a result of the nation's sixth-place finish in the UCI Olympic Ranking List of May 25, 2016. Rudi van Houts was the first mountain biker, who met the criteria set by the NOC*NSF being selected to the Dutch cycling squad by virtue of his top ten finish at the 2015 European Mountain Bike Championships in Chies d'Alpago, Italy{{cite news|title=Pre-selectie vrouwen Olympische spelen|trans-title=KNWU announced pre-Olympic squad|url=http://nos.nl/artikel/2049050-mountainbiker-van-houts-heeft-ticket-spelen-binnen.html|publisher=Nederlandse Omroep Stichting|date=26 July 2015|access-date=26 May 2016}}

The Dutch NOC*NSF decided to refuse the second quota place, as they didn't have a second mountain biker who met the national criteria. As a result of this, Van Houts was the only Dutch mountain biker to compete at the Games.

Originally, Anne Terpstra finished in eleventh place at the 2016 European Mountain Bike Championships, which was not enough to qualify for Rio 2016, while she did not manage to have a top 10 finish at a European Championships or a World Championships during the qualification period. However, the UCI decided to disqualify the Russian mountain biker Ekateryna Anoshina, who finished in eighth place. After the disqualification, Terpstra finished in tenth place and was qualified for Rio 2016.{{cite news|title=Wijziging in EK-uitslag levert Terpstra Olympisch ticket op|trans-title=Terpstra qualified for Rio, after change in the results of the 2016 European Championships|url=http://nos.nl/rio2016/artikel/2121390-wijziging-in-ek-uitslag-levert-terpstra-olympisch-ticket-op.html|publisher=Nederlandse Omroep Stichting|date=26 July 2015|access-date=26 May 2016}}
