RTV Belgrade staged the national final on 28 March 1992 at its television studios in Belgrade.{{Cite web |title=1992. – Beograd - eurosong.hr|url=https://eurosong.hr/povijest/povijest-jugovizije/1992-beograd/ |url-status=live |archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20240918221128/https://eurosong.hr/povijest/povijest-jugovizije/1992-beograd/ |archive-date=18 September 2024|access-date=18 September 2024 |website=eurosong.hr}} The show was hosted by Dragana Katić, Maja Milatović, Milica Gacin, and Radoš Bajić.{{Cite web |title=Yugoslavia: Jugovizjia 1992 |url=https://eurovisionworld.com/national/yugoslavia/jugovizija-1992 |url-status=live |archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20240918221124/https://eurovisionworld.com/national/yugoslavia/jugovizija-1992 |archive-date=18 September 2024|access-date=18 September 2024 |website=Eurovisionworld}} {{lang|sh-latn|Jugoslavenska radiotelevizija|i=no}} (JRT), invited all its affiliates to participate in the national final; however, the Slovenian and Croatian broadcasters didn't send any entries as the independence of their republics had widespread recognition by January 1992. There were also no Albanian candidates from the Kosovar broadcaster due to rising tensions in Kosovo between Albanians and Serbs.{{Cite book |title=A Song for Europe: Popular Music and Politics in the Eurovision Song Contest |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Eq7nilnv93cC&dq=Jugovizija+umire+od+stida&pg=PA95 |page=95 |first1=Ivan |last1=Raykoff |first2=Robert Deam |last2=Tobin |isbn=978-0-7546-5878-8}}

In addition, RTV Skopje withdrew a few days before the competition, after having selected its entries. Originally, its three songs were supposed to be performed as songs number 7, 9, and 19: "Slatka tajna" by Tanja, Lidija & Tanja (7); "Lady" by Milk & Company (9); and "Parižanka" by Dragan Karanfilovski (19).

There were 20 songs in the final from the five remaining subnational public broadcasters: RTV Belgrade, RTV Montenegro, RTV Prishtina, RTV Novi Sad, and RTV Sarajevo. RTV Sarajevo still participated, although Bosnia and Herzegovina had already declared independence prior to the national final.{{cite web|url=http://www.esctoday.com/specials/read/9315|title=Interview with Extra Nena|last=Klier|first=Marcus|date=2007-09-28|publisher=ESCToday|access-date=2008-08-30}} The winning song was chosen by an expert jury, which included Lola Novaković, who represented {{esccnty|Yugoslavia|y=1962|t=Yugoslavia in the 1962 contest}}. The voting system remained the same as in previous years: each of the jurors gave points to their favorite songs according to a system with the ascending format of going from 1-3, 5 and finally 7 points. The winner was the Serbian singer {{ill|Extra Nena|sr}} with the song "{{lang|sr-latn|Ljubim te pesmama|i=no}}", composed by Radivoje Radivojević and written by Gale Janković.{{cite web|url=http://natfinals.50webs.com/90s_00s/Yugoslavia1992.html|title=Yugoslavian National Final 1992 at Eurovision Song Contest National Finals´ Homepage|access-date=25 May 2020}}

After Eurovision

This was the final participation of Yugoslavia at Eurovision Song Contest. Following the 1992 contest, the Yugoslavian EBU member broadcaster, {{lang|sh-latn|Jugoslovenska radiotelevizija|i=no}} (JRT), was disbanded that same year and its successor organisations in the FR Yugoslavia, {{lang|sh-latn|Radio-televizija Srbije|i=no}} (RTS) in Serbia and {{lang|sh-latn|Radio-televizija Crne Gore|i=no}} (RTCG) in Montenegro, were barred from joining the union due to sanctions placed by United Nations Security Council Resolution 757 against the country.{{cite web |title=Malmö 1992 – Eurovision Song Contest |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/malmo-1992 |publisher=European Broadcasting Union |access-date=26 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170813153840/https://eurovision.tv/event/malmo-1992 |archive-date=13 August 2017 |url-status=live}}{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=132–135}}{{cite web |title=RTS: "Evrosong" treba da bude mesto zajedništva naroda |url=https://www.rts.rs/page/magazine/sr/story/431/muzika/2701604/rts-evrosong-treba-da-bude-mesto-zajednistva-naroda.html |publisher=Radio Television of Serbia |access-date=15 December 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170415202055/http://www.rts.rs/page/magazine/sr/story/431/muzika/2701604/rts-evrosong-treba-da-bude-mesto-zajednistva-naroda.html |archive-date=15 April 2017 |date=14 April 2017 |language=sr |url-status=live}}{{cite web |title=United Nations Security Council Resolution 757 (Implementing Trade Embargo on Yugoslavia) |url=http://www1.umn.edu/humanrts/peace/docs/scres757.html |publisher=University of Minnesota Human Rights Center |access-date=2008-08-18}} The union between RTS and RTCG, {{lang|sh-latn|Udruženje javnih radija i televizija|i=no}} (UJRT), was finally readmitted to the EBU on 1 July 2001 after the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro gained recognition from the United Nations and the International Telecommunication Union.

The broadcasters from the newly-formed republics, {{esccnty|Bosnia and Herzegovina}}, {{esccnty|Croatia}}, and {{esccnty|Slovenia}} then appeared independently at Eurovision beginning with the {{escyr|1993||1993 contest}}, MRT from {{esccnty|North Macedonia}} joined the contest in {{escyr|1998}}, and finally UJRT from {{esccnty|Serbia and Montenegro}} joined the contest in {{escyr|2004}}.
