The People's Republic of China first competed at the Paralympic Games in 1984, at the Summer Games in New York City, United States and Stoke Mandeville, United Kingdom. Since the 2004 Summer Paralympics, China has topped the medal table with more gold medals, more silver medals, more bronze medals and more medals overall than any other nation at every Summer Paralympics.

As of 2024, China finished first in the Summer Paralympics six times and first once in the Winter Paralympics. With the nation's 11th appearance at the Summer and 6th appearance at the Winter Paralympics, China is the most successful country overall in the Asia & Oceania region, making them the 3rd most successful country in the All-time Paralympic Games medal table.^[1]

Despite having competed at every Winter Games since Salt Lake City in 2002, China did not win a single medal until the 2018 Winter Paralympics, where China won their first-ever gold medal as well as the first medal in the wheelchair curling competition. Four years later, at home during the 2022 Winter Paralympics, China won medals in all six sports, topped the medal table for the first time at the Winter Paralympics, and became the most successful appearance of the Asian nation, as well as China's best appearance at the Winter Paralympics.
