Notes

- Hanvaria was also due to compete in Worldvision, with singer Lawrence Iriba representing the country. Due to a discrepancy in his travel documents however, he was denied entry into Malta Comino Gozo, and was deported back to Hanvaria.

- This was Malta Comino Gozo's fifth win and first win on home soil.

- Ikslund was disqualified for not sending an entry without proper lyrics.

- Both StrayaRoos and StrayaRoos Barrier Islands were also considered for disqualification, but was allowed by the Worldvision Committee. StrayaRoos for a seemingly unfinished entry, and StrayaRoos Barrier Islands for an entry without "proper" lyrics.

- StrayaRoos Barrier Islands had not had their televote counted, as they had sent in suspicious televotes, which the Worldvision Committee took notice and removed.
