Countries and flagbearers
[edit]On 4 March 2020, the IOC announced that each team can have the option to allow two flag bearers, one male and one female, in an effort to promote gender equality.[1]
Below is a list of parading teams and their announced flag bearer, in the same order as the parade. This is sortable by team name, flag bearer's name, and flag bearer's sport. Names are given in the form officially designated by the IOC. Note that the list is not yet finalised and subject to organisers' decision.
- Notes
- ^ EJ Obiena was originally chosen, but he was replaced by men's middleweight boxer Eumir Marcial because of a new protocol that required flagbearers to be in Tokyo 48 hours before the opening ceremony. Obiena is scheduled to arrive on 23 July, the exact day of the opening ceremony.[69][70]
- ^ Khairul Anuar Mohamad was originally chosen, but requested to be replaced to focus for the archery competition a day after the ceremony.[88]
- ^ Simona Halep was originally chosen, but had to withdraw due to injury.[97]
