This article describes the Polish qualifications for the Eurovision Song Contest , in which the country has been participating since 1994. As a national member of the European Broadcasting Union - which is the basic requirement for participation in the competition - Telewizja Polska (TVP) is responsible for organizing the national finals. However, there have only been such programs since 2003, as internal elections had previously been brought forward by the radio, i.e. the decision made by a jury of the broadcaster's own.
