Qualification

{{main|Badminton at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Qualification}}

There were 172 badminton quota places, with an equal split between men and women, available for Paris 2024; NOCs could enter a maximum of eight badminton players across five medal events (men's and women's singles; men's, women's, and mixed doubles). The host nation France reserved a spot each in the men's and women's singles to be officially awarded to its respective highest-ranked badminton player, while four places (two per gender) were entitled to the eligible NOCs interested to have badminton players compete for Paris 2024 under the Universality principle.{{cite web |title=Qualification System – Games of the XXXIII Olympiad – Badminton|url=https://stillmed.olympics.com/media/Documents/Olympic-Games/Paris-2024/Paris2024-QS-Badminton.pdf|via=International Olympic Committee|publisher=Badminton World Federation |access-date=22 January 2023}}{{cite news|first=Michael|last=Pavitt|title=Badminton qualification process for Paris 2024 set to begin in May 2023|url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1122743/bwf-badminton-paris-2024-qualification|work=Inside the Games|date=4 May 2022|access-date=22 January 2023}}

The remaining badminton players underwent a direct qualifying process to secure a spot in their respective categories for Paris 2024 through the "Race to Paris" ranking list prepared by the Badminton World Federation. The qualification period commenced on 1 May 2023 and concluded on 28 April 2024, with the final eligibility list published two days after the deadline.

NOCs could enter a maximum of two players each in the men's and women's singles if they were ranked within the top sixteen of the "Race to Paris" ranking list, respectively; otherwise, they sent a single player until the roster of thirty-eight was completed. Similar protocols also applied to the players competing in the doubles tournament as the NOCs could enter a maximum of two pairs if they were ranked in the top eight with the rest entitled to a single pair until the quota of sixteen was reached. Additional rules ensure that each category must have featured a badminton player representing each of the five continental zones (Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania) and assign additional quota places if some players qualify for multiple events.
