Hungary has participated in the Contest 17 times since its debut at the Eurovision Song Contest 1994 in Dublin with the song "Kinek mondjam el vétkeimet?" by Frederika Bayer, which remains its best result to date, finishing in 4th place. The country had attempted to enter the previous year's Contest but failed to qualify from the audio-only pre-qualifiers round. It also failed to qualify from the pre-qualifiers in the Eurovision Song Contest 1996 in Oslo.

Since the introduction of the semi finals, it has failed to qualify three times for the final but has scored three Top 10 finishes when doing so.
