2022 Winter Olympics Parade of Nations

By tradition, Greece entered first as the originator of the Olympics,^[1] and China entered last as host. Per a new rule introduced by the International Olympic Committee at the 2020 Summer Olympics,^[2] Italy entered second-to-last as the upcoming host of the 2026 Winter Olympics. All nations in between entered in the collation order of the host nation's language, Mandarin, in Simplified Chinese.^[3]

As part of sanctions due to the Russian doping scandal, Russia was not allowed to directly use its name or flag, and entered under the acronym "ROC" after the Russian Olympic Committee and its flag.

Announcers in the stadium read off the names of the marching nations in Mandarin Chinese (the official language of the host country), English, and French (the official languages of the Olympics) with music accompanying the athletes as they marched into the stadium.

According to the current version of the Olympic Charter, during those Games, each nation had the option of having two flag bearers (a man and a woman) in an effort to promote gender equality.

The following is a list of each country's flag bearer. The list is sorted by the sequence that each nation appeared in the Parade of Nations.^[5] The names are given in their official designations by the IOC, and the Chinese names follow their official designations by the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
