Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

Iran (officially called the Islamic Republic of Iran) competed at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, from 6 to 22 February 2026.

Iran's team consisted of four athletes (two per gender) competing in two sports.

Cross-country skiers Danyal Saveh Shemshaki and Samaneh Beyrami Baher were the country's flagbearer during the opening ceremony. Meanwhile, Sadaf Saveh Shemshaki was the country's flagbearer during the closing ceremony.

Following the 2026 Iran massacres amid the 2025–2026 Iranian protests, activists called on the IOC to ban the Iranian team from the 2026 Winter Olympics.
