Serbia has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest nine times since making its debut in 2007. Serbia previously participated as part of Yugoslavia (both the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from 1961 to 1991 and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1992) and as Serbia and Montenegro (20042006). Serbia won the contest on its debut as an Independent country in 2007, with Marija Šerifović and the song "Molitva". The country's next best result is Željko Joksimović's third place in 2012. Serbia also reached the top ten in 2008 and 2015.

In 1989 Yugoslavia won the Eurovision Song Contest for the only time in their history, with "Rock Me", sung in Croatian and English by Riva.

Serbia's debut entry as an independent nation, the ballad "Molitva" by Marija Šerifović, won the Eurovision Song Contest 2007, receiving 268 points. Serbia became the first country that won with debut entry after Switzerland's win at the first edition. After this, they were the host of the 2008 contest in the Serbian capital of Belgrade.
