The tables give the list of teams at the Chess Olympiad 1996 in Yerevan. 114 teams took part in the Olympics, which hosted a tournament in the Swiss system over 14 rounds. Among them were, in addition to the A-team, two other teams of the host country. The classification was primarily based on Brettpunkte, then the Buchholz classification and finally on team points. Each team included four regular and a maximum of two substitutes. Delayed arrival of some teams resulted in free tickets, which were rated with two team and board points each.
