Turkmenistan made its Paralympic Games debut at the 2000 Summer Paralympics in Sydney, with Atajan Begniyazov as its sole representative (in the men's -48 kg in powerlifting). It has competed in every edition of the Summer Paralympics since then, but never in the Winter Paralympics.
Since their debut, Turkmens have mostly only competed in powerlifting; with 2012 being the only edition that they've fielded a non-powerlifting athlete, Sohbet Charyyev, specializing in long jump. Turkmenistan has never won a medal at the Paralympic Games.
