The following is the qualification system and list of qualified nations for the Equestrian at the 2023 Pan American Games competition.
Qualification system A quota of 150 equestrian riders (44 dressage, 46 eventing and 60 show jumping) will be allowed to qualify. A maximum of 12 athletes can compete for a nation across all events (with a maximum of four per discipline). Athletes qualified through various qualifying events and rankings.
