Afghanistan competed at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta.

Afghanistan only sent three representatives to the Atlanta Games, but light-middleweight boxer Mohammad Jawid Aman was disqualified after arriving at the Games when he was too late for the weigh-in.

The marathon runner Abdul Baser Wasiqi injured his hamstring prior to the race: nevertheless, he took part in the marathon but finished last, more than two hours after the winner.
