The specific criteria for qualification vary depending on the year and the particular Olympic Games, but generally include the following:

• National Qualification: Archers must meet the qualifying criteria set by their national governing body and be selected to represent their country at the Olympic Games.
• World Rankings: Archers must achieve a certain ranking in the World Archery Rankings based on their performance in international competitions.
• Minimum Qualification Scores: Archers must achieve a minimum score in international competitions in order to be eligible to compete in the Olympic Games.
• Participation in Qualifying Events: Archers must participate in qualifying events such as the World Archery Championships and other international competitions to demonstrate their ability and competitiveness.
