Olympic qualification
There were 15 individual quotas and 10 group quotas available at this competition for the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. All places were non-nominative. The individual quotas were earned by each of the top 15 gymnasts in the all-around final. The top 8 groups in the all-around final also earned Olympic quotas for their country. The last two group spots were also based on the all-around results, but a minimum of three continents were required to be represented among the 10 group spots given out at this World Championships. If, for example, all the top 10 groups were from European countries, the 9th and 10th spots would go to the highest-placing groups representing countries on other continents. Additional individuals and groups could qualify at the Olympic Games Test Event in April 2016.
