Hungary made its Olympic debut in 1912. The squad's last place finish and 0–2 record are somewhat misleading; Hungary lost both its matches by a single goal in each.

Athletics
27 athletes represented Hungary. It was the fifth appearance of the nation in athletics, in which Hungary had competed at each Olympics. Kóczán's bronze medal in the javelin throw was the only athletics medal won by a Hungarian; he and Wardener were the only two to advance to the finals via eliminations (Kárpáti and Ripszám ran the marathon, which consisted of only the final). Wardener finished 9th in the high jump.

Fencing
Thirteen fencers represented Hungary, including six of the eight men who had competed in 1908. It was the third appearance of the nation in fencing. The Hungarians dominated the sabre competition to an even greater extent than they had four years earlier, taking all three of the medals and having seven of the eight finalists in the individual event (they had taken the gold and silver, with five of eight finalists in 1908). Not one of the Hungarian sabrists was eliminated during the first two rounds. The sabre team also successfully defended its gold medal in the team competition. The Hungarians did not fare as well in either the foil or the épée, however, with only one fencer reaching the final in either of those two events as Béla Békessy placed seventh in the foil.
