2024 Summer Olympics qualification
The competitions also served as qualification for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The results were evaluated retroactively after the completion of the global qualification event, the 2023 ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships. There was one quota spot available in K1 and C1 each, but no quota spots in kayak cross. The quota were ultimately earned by Austria (men's kayak), the Netherlands (men's canoe), Ireland (women's kayak) and Slovenia (women's canoe).
