Montenegro is expected to participate as an independent nation at the Olympic Games for the first time in 2008, at the Beijing Games. Previously, Montenegrin athletes have competed as part of Serbia and Montenegro in 2004 and as part of Yugoslavia before that.
The National Olympic Committee for Montenegro is the Montenegrin Olympic Committee. It was created in 2006 and recognized by the International Olympic Committee in 2007.
Montenegrin athletes have won medals on 22 occasions in five different sports as part of teams representing Yugoslavia or Serbia and Montenegro, but none yet as individual competitors.
