Volleyball at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's qualification

The men's qualification for the Olympic volleyball tournament took place between September 2023 and June 2024, allocating twelve teams for the final tournament. As the host nation and the reigning Olympic champions, France reserved a direct spot each for the men's team.

The remainder of the twelve-team field endured a dual qualification pathway to secure the quota places for Paris 2024. First, the winners and runners-up from each of the three Olympic qualification tournaments qualified directly for the Games. Second, the last five berths were attributed to the eligible NOCs based on the FIVB World Rankings in June 2024, abiding by the universality principle, that was, prioritizing those from the continents without a qualified team yet in the Paris 2024 tournament.

FIVB Olympic Qualification Tournament
As a principal route for the tournament, the winners and runners-up in each of the three qualification pools secured the quota places for Paris 2024.

Qualified teams
FIVB released the names of the twenty-four teams eligible to compete in the men's Olympic qualification tournaments for Paris 2024 through the federation's world rankings of 12 September 2022 (except France — qualified for the Games as the host nation; and Russia — ineligible because of the country's instigation to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine).

World ranking qualification
The remaining five berths were attributed to the highest-ranked eligible NOCs based on the FIVB world rankings at the end of the 2024 FIVB Volleyball Nations League preliminary phase. Under the universality principle, the teams were selected according to the order of priority: 1) those from the continent without a qualified team; and 2) highest-ranked eligible NOCs irrespective of the continent.
