This page lists all the nations that expressed interest in LvL but or they didn't debuted or their citizens aren't interested:

Countries that Expressed Interest and Tried to Debut
Countries that tried either to debut on the contest or just expressed enthusiastic interest

Isle of Man and the Channel Islands
started to show interest on LvL around the 16th edition, when England was going to host it. They tried to debut but did not appeared on the list of participants. Many people started to support a Manx debut when territories like Gibraltar, Greenland, Faroe Islands and Aland Islands could debut and re-enter the contest. The other two territories are the Channel Islands ( and ), many fans think their participation was not yet confirmed or done because of troubles between England and France. Yet, they are willing to debut as much as Isle of Man

Libya
, from all north african countries, was the less likely to debut on LvL. Yet they started to express interest after the Morocco win, only trying to participate on the 17th edition. They didn't make it because of the conflicts of the arab nations with Israel, and later because of the raise of the participation fee. But a bright future awaits Libya.

Malaysia and Singapore
Both participants of Asian Lied van Liedjes and Commonwealth Music Festival, and  had their path opened like some asian countries like Hong Kong, Iraq and Lebanon. A duo debut was planned for the 17th edition but both of them didn't appear on the list of participants. Later on the 24th, was planned for Malaysia to debut alongside with Japan, but the Malaysian delegation messed up the dates of submissions and was left out. Still, both nations have average records on the two spin off contests and it's hope for they to debut.

Syria
only participated on the 4th] edition of Asian LvL, they started to get interested after the Iraqi debut on the [[Lied van Liedjes 13|13th edition, and then tried to debut on the the 16th edition, debuting alongside New Zealand and San Marino. Yet, the talks weren't enough and Syria ended up not to be on the list of participants. Syria tried to participate on other occasions but always removed their application or either due to Israel or due to the participation fee.

Tunisia
has the same reasons as Libya, tried to participate on the 16th edition, after expressing interest since the Morocco win. They did not because of Israel or because of the fee.
