Quota places are allocated to the athlete(s) by name.

The IJF World Ranking List of the Olympic Qualification period will be used to allocate the 338 qualification places in the hierarchical order of qualification. It will also be used for seeding during the Olympic Games draw.

Mixed Team Weight categories:
Women: -57 kg (-48 kg, -52 kg, -57 kg), -70 kg (-57 kg, -63 kg, -70 kg), +70 kg (-70 kg, -78 kg, +78 kg)
Men: -73 kg (-60 kg, -66 kg, -73 kg), -90 kg (-73 kg, -81 kg, -90 kg), +90 kg (-90 kg, -100 kg, +100 kg)

All NOCs having a full mixed team (i.e., must have athletes able to compete in all six combined categories mentioned above) can enter for the Mixed Team event.
All athletes who qualify in the individual competition can take part in the team event (max. 7 women, 7 men),provided their NOC is eligible to participate in the mixed team event.

Individual Events

For each of the seven (7) weight categories per gender, the 17 highest ranked athletes on the IJF World Ranking List of the Olympic Qualification period will be directly qualified, with a maximum of one (1) athlete per NOC per weight category. This is a total of 238 athletes (119 men and 119 women).

An additional 100 athletes will be directly qualified as per the IJF World Ranking List of the Olympic Qualification period based on continental representation and according to the following procedure:

• For each continent as listed in the table below and based on the IJF World Ranking List of the Olympic Qualification period, a Continental Ranking List will be created listing all the athletes from the relevant Continent across all weight categories and genders according to their World Ranking points.
• Athletes with the highest number of points on the Continental Ranking List will qualify according to the following continental quota:

• Maximum one (1) athlete per NOC can qualify through continental qualification across all weight categories and genders.
• If a continent fails to use its full allocation, any remaining quota place will be allocated according to the IJF World Ranking List of the Olympic Qualification period to the highest ranked athlete not yet qualified, irrespective of the continent, in the respective gender, respecting the maximum quota of one (1) athlete per NOC per event.

Mixed Team Event

Each of the five continents has one (1) Team Invitation place.
Athletes who will receive a Team Invitation place are qualified automatically for both the individual and the team event in the Olympic Games.

Rules for finding the applicable nation in each continent:

• Eligible are nations which have only five (5) athletes instead of the required six (6) team weight categories qualified.
• The highest ranked eligible nation in each continent from the World Team Ranking List will get a quota place.
• If there is more than one eligible nation with the same or no rank in the World Team Ranking List, the quota place goes to the nation with the athlete, who has the highest individual ranking points across all eligible individual weight categories for the missing team category.
• If a nation gets a Team invitation place automatically the athlete is qualified who has the most points in the individual World Ranking List across all the weight categories which are eligible to qualify for the missing team weight category.
