National final

Österreichischer Rundfunk (ORF) held the national final on 15 March 1990 at Studio Z1 of the ORF-Zentrum in Vienna, hosted by Lizzi Engstler, who represented Austria in 1982.

The winner was decided through a mixture of televoting (50%) and an expert jury (50%). The winner of the final was Duett with the song "Das Beste", however they were disqualified after it was revealed they had competed with the same song in the 1988 German national final. The winner was then declared as Simone Stelzer with the song "Keine Mauern mehr".
