EMA 2007, the Slovene national final, will be held over three days in February. Before, an internal jury will select 23 songs (plus four as a backup) that will be presented in the two semi finals and the final. A 24th spot is reserved for the winner of the Bitka talentov show. The Top 7 songs out of each semi final will move forward to the final round.

UPD: Slovene broadcaster RTVSLO has now revealed that the final round of the contest will be held in Ljubljana on 3rd February 2007 after the two semi finals on 1st and 2nd February. Artists are allowed to submit their entries until 3rd December.

Televoting will be used: People will be able to vote via phone, mobile phone and SMS. In the final round, two entries will qualify for a 'super' final round in which the winner will be decided. If anything should go wrong with the televoting, a backup jury will decide the winner. .

Slovenia is one of the six unlucky countries that failed to qualify in every semi final broadcast so far. Anzej Dezan finfished 16th in the 2006 qualifier round with the song Mr. Nobody. Therefore, Slovenia will have to enter the semi final once again in Helsinki.
