We demonstrate that parastatistics can be quantized using path integrals by calculating the generating functionals for time-ordered products of both free and interacting parabose and parafermi fields in terms of path integrals. We also give a convenient form of the commutation relations for the Green components of the parabose and parafermi operators in both the canonical and path integral formalisms.
