Songwriters of any nationality were allowed to submit entries, but songs were required to be performed by Serb citizens and in one of the official languages of the Republic of Serbia.[4][6] At the closing of the deadline, 171 submissions were received by RTS.[7] A selection committee reviewed the submissions and selected fifteen entries for the national final. The titles of the selected entries were announced on 31 January 2013, while the artists were announced on 6 February 2013.[8][9] The selection committee consisted of Biljana Krstić (musical editor in Radio Belgrade), Momčilo Bajagić (musician and composer), Vladimir Maričić (composer and pianist), Dragoslav Stanisavljević (editor in chief for jazz section in RTS musical production) and Dobroslav Predić (editor in musical section of RTS).[8]
