20.2 A condition of participation for a given country is that an
athlete must hold the citizenship of that country, proven by
passport. In the case of double or multiple citizenship, proven
by a valid passport from the respective country(ies), any
athlete may participate in international competitions representing
not more than one country within a period of twelve (12) months. In case a country does not issue its own passport,
for the determination of nationality the IWF accepts
the applicable rules of the UN and/or IOC.

т.е., атлет с двойным гражданством не может представлять более одной страны за 12 месяцев.

20.4 To represent a new country in international competitions, an
athlete must change his/her citizenship. An athlete or official
wishing to change nationality must obtain permission
from the current nation, the new nation and then the IWF.
In the case of a second or further change of citizenship, the
condition of participation in international events is four (4)
years’ of new citizenship, including one Olympic Games.

т.е., смену гражданства должны утвердить старая страна, новая страна и IWF. .

цитата:

A competitor who is a national of two or more countries at the same time may represent
either one of them, as he may elect. However, after having represented one country in
the Olympic Games, in continental or regional games or in world or regional championships
recognised by the relevant IF, he may not represent another country unless he
meets the conditions set forth in paragraph 2 below that apply to persons who have
changed their nationality or acquired a new nationality.

2. A competitor who has represented one country in the Olympic Games, in continental or
regional games or in world or regional championships recognised by the relevant IF, and
who has changed his nationality or acquired a new nationality, may participate in the
Olympic Games to represent his new country provided that at least three years have
passed since the competitor last represented his former country. This period may be
reduced or even cancelled, with the agreement of the NOCs and IF concerned, by the
IOC Executive Board, which takes into account the circumstances of each case.

т.е., если атлет выступал(а) за старую страну, он(а) должен(а) выждать 3 года прежде чем могут выступать за новую страну в олимпийских играх. этот срок может быть отменен или уменьшен после рассмотрения особенностей IOC Executive Board-ом.
