The individual jumping at the 2008 Summer Olympics took place between August 15 and August 21, at the Hong Kong Sports Institute.
Five rounds of show-jumping were conducted, in two stages. The first three rounds made up the qualifying stage. The second and third of those rounds were also used for the team jumping event. Following the qualifying rounds, the top 35 pairs moved on to the final stage. That stage was held over two rounds; only the top 20 pairs competed in the second of the two final rounds. Overall scores and final rankings were based on the sum of scores from both rounds of the final stage.
