The Netherlands competed at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, USSR. The nation did not fully participate in the American-led boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in protest over the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan, but the Dutch athletes did boycott the Opening Ceremony, and the Olympic Flag was used in place of Netherlands' national flag at medal ceremonies. 75 competitors, 57 men and 18 women, took part in 56 events in 10 sports.
The first appearance by Dutch archers in the Olympics resulted in top eight finishes for both competitors.
