The women's featherweight boxing event at the 2020 Summer Olympics is scheduled to take place between 24 July and 3 August 2021 at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan.

Reigning World Champion Nesthy Petecio of the Philippines has qualified for the Games.

A National Olympic Committee (NOC) could enter only 1 qualified boxer in the weight class.

The competition begins with a preliminary round, where the number of competitors is reduced to 16, and concludes with a final.

Judges consider "number of blows landed on the target areas, domination of the bout, technique and tactical superiority and competitiveness."
