Under the qualification rules for the 2016 Games, an NOC which failed to gain a specific team place, but did qualify three individual riders, was entitled to enter those riders as a 'composite' team in the team event. In the event, Denmark was the only nation to achieve this, and was therefore granted an entry in the team event.
