Dominica competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The country's participation in Tokyo marked its seventh appearance at the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1996.
The Dominica delegation consisted of two athletes: triple jumper Thea LaFond and middle-distance runner Dennick Luke. LaFond qualified for the games after she had met a qualifying mark in her event while Luke qualified after receiving a universality slot. During the qualification round of the women's triple jump, LaFond had set a national record and qualified for the finals. She would later place 12th. Luke competed in the first round of the men's 800 metres, where he had placed last.
