Serbia and Montenegro was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 with the song "Zauvijek moja" (Заувијек моја), composed by Slaven Knezović, with lyrics by written by Milan Perić, and performed by the band No Name. The Serbian-Montenegrin participant broadcaster, Udruženje javnih radija i televizija (UJRT), organised the national final Evropesma-Europjesma 2005 in order to select its entry for the contest. Serbian Radio-televizija Srbije (RTS) and Montenegrin Radio-televizija Crne Gore (RTCG) each submitted twelve entries from their respective selections Beovizija 2005 and Montevizija 2005 with twenty-four entries in total competing in the national final on 4 March 2005. "Zauvijek moja" performed by No Name was selected as the winner following the combination of votes from an eight-member jury panel and a public televote.

As one of ten highest placed finishers in the 2004 contest Serbia and Montenegro directly qualified to compete in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 21 May 2005. Performing in position 12, Serbia and Montenegro placed seventh out of the 24 participating countries with 137 points.

Prior to the 2005 contest, Udruženje javnih radija i televizija (UJRT) had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest representing Serbia and Montenegro as an independent country one time. Its only entry, "Lane moje" performed by Željko Joksimović, placed second.

As part of its duties as participating broadcaster, UJRT organised the selection of its entry in the Eurovision Song Contest while Serbian Radio-televizija Srbije (RTS) and Montenegrin Radio-televizija Crne Gore (RTCG) broadcast the event within their respective republics. UJRT confirmed its intentions to participate at the 2005 contest on 14 November 2004. The Evropesma-Europjesma national final had been used in 2004 in order to select its entry, a procedure that continued for the selection of the 2005 entry as announced along with its participation confirmation.

RTS organised the 3rd edition of Beovizija in order to select its entries for the national final. Jelena Tomašević won Beovizija 2005 with the song "Jutro", written by Željko Joksimović and Aleksandra Milutinović. She received 78 points from the jury and the maximum 12 points by SMS and televoting. The hosts were actors Slobodan Ninković and Jelena Jovičić, who sang many former Eurovision Song Contest hits as a tribute to 50th anniversary of the event.

RTCG organised the first edition of Montevizija in order to select its entries for the national final. Montevizija 2005 was held on 2 March in Podgorica hosted by Andrija Milošević, Žana Gardašević, and Anđela Nenadović. Twenty-four songs competed and nine juries – 8 jury members and a public televote determined the ten songs to progress to the final of Evropjesma.

Evropesma-Europjesma 2005 was the national final organised by UJRT in order to select the Serbian–Monetengrin entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2005. The competition took place at the RTCG studios in Podgorica on 4 March 2005, hosted by Andela Nenadović, Žana Gardašević and Andrija Milošević. The show was broadcast in Serbia on RTS 1 and RTS Sat as well as streamed online via the broadcaster's website rts.co.yu, and in Montenegro on TVCG 1 and TVCG Sat.

Serbian RTS and Montenegrin RTCG, each conducted separate selections in order to select the twenty-four entries to proceed to the national final: RTS organised Beovizija 2005 on 19 February 2005 where twenty-three songs competed, while RTCG organised Montevizija 2005 on 2 March 2005 with twenty-four entries competing. The top fourteen entries from Beovizija 2005 and the top ten entries from Montevizija 2005 qualified for the national final.
