Four songs competed and the winner was selected by the votes of an expert jury.

The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency.

This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.

In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.

During the allocation draw on 25 November 2013, Moldova was drawn to perform 8th, following Belarus and preceding Georgia.
