Background
Turkey made its debut in the Summer Paralympics at the 1992 Barcelona Games. After not participating four years later, they have participated in every other Summer Paralympics to date, as of 2016. Turkey has sent a delegation to most Winter Olympics between their debut at the 1936 edition and the 2014 Games, skipping only 1952, 1972, and 1980. However, this was their first appearance at a Winter Paralympics. Mehmet Çekiç was chosen as the Turkish flagbearer for the parade of nations during the opening ceremony. He was also the flagbearer for the closing ceremony.

Disability classification
Every participant at the Paralympics has their disability grouped into one of five disability categories; amputation, the condition may be congenital or sustained through injury or illness; cerebral palsy; wheelchair athletes, there is often overlap between this and other categories; visual impairment, including blindness; Les autres, any physical disability that does not fall strictly under one of the other categories, for example dwarfism or multiple sclerosis. Each Paralympic sport then has its own classifications, dependent upon the specific physical demands of competition. Events are given a code, made of numbers and letters, describing the type of event and classification of the athletes competing. Events with "B" in the code are for athletes with visual impairment, codes LW1 to LW9 are for athletes who stand to compete and LW10 to LW12 are for athletes who compete sitting down. Alpine skiing events grouped athletes into separate competitions for sitting, standing and visually impaired athletes.
