Egypt competed at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. 89 competitors, 74 men and 15 women, took part in 64 events in 20 sports. Egyptian competitors did not win any medal at the Sydney Olympics.
Sydney 2000 marked the first time the Egyptian Olympic team competed in Australia as Egypt and other nations boycotted the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne due to the Suez Crisis but Egypt did take part in the Equestrian events at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Stockholm five months earlier.
