Eligibility
Skaters were eligible for the event if they represented a European member nation of the International Skating Union and had reached the age of 15 before July 1, 2015 in their place of birth. The corresponding competition for non-European skaters is the 2016 Four Continents Championships. National associations selected their entries according to their own criteria but the ISU mandated that their selections achieve a minimum technical elements score (TES) at an international event prior to the European Championships.

| Ice dance | 19 | 29 |
| Scores had to be achieved at an ISU-recognized international event in the ongoing or preceding season. SP and FS scores could be attained at different events. |
