A total of 176 gymnasts are allowed to compete (114 in artistic, 46 in rhythmic and 16 in trampoline).
This meant that the two additional quotas were allocated to the individual qualification (bringing the total to nine available spots).
However, only eight nations had entered the individual event and thus the ninth-place finishing team received an additional quota (three total).
However, only ten nations were entered in that event, meaning the ninth place team also got three spots.
[1] The top six nations in the individual event at the Pan American Championship qualified two gymnasts.
