The 2012 Liebherr World Team Table Tennis Championships were held at the Westfalenhallen in Dortmund, Germany from March 25 to April 1, 2012.[1] It was the 51st edition to be contested.[2] 120 men's teams and 92 women's teams were allocated to different divisions according to the final ranking of the previous World Team Table Tennis Championships and the ITTF World Team Rankings.[3][4][5] The winner of the first division, called the Championship Division, was crowned as the new champion.
To be eligible to have a team entered for the team events in 2012 Summer Olympics, the ITTF member association must have participated in the tournament.[6] The ranking of the 2012 Championships was taken into account for the Olympic qualification after the final world Olympic qualification tournament, which was held from May 10 to May 13.
