Entry requirements for Serbia

You can visit Serbia without a visa for up to 90 days within a 6-month period for tourism.

Your passport must be valid for at least 90 days after the date you plan to leave Serbia.

Make sure border guards stamp your passport upon entry, or you could face a fine and charges when leaving.

You must register with the local police within 24 hours of arrival, which is usually done automatically if staying in a hotel.

If you need to extend your stay beyond 90 days, you must apply at the local police station at least 30 days before your permitted stay expires.

Good to know:

Only enter Serbia by land through recognised border crossings.

If carrying cash or travellers cheques worth over 10,000 euros, you must complete and retain a certified customs declaration form.

Safety in Serbia

Serbia is tourist-friendly but has some key cultural and legal rules:

Always carry your passport with you for identification.

Be aware of pickpockets in tourist areas, airports, and on public transport.

Avoid taking photographs of military or police installations, personnel, or vehicles.

Use only registered taxis, identifiable by a municipal registration number.

Lock your sleeping berth from the inside on overnight trains to keep valuables safe.

Bonus tips:

Make sure cigarette ends are properly extinguished, especially in dry countryside from April to October.

Do not light fires or barbecues except in designated and marked areas to avoid wildfires.

Health in Serbia

The UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) or European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) can be used for state healthcare in Serbia, but it's still recommended to have comprehensive travel insurance. GHIC/EHIC is not a substitute for travel insurance; it doesn't cover everything, like repatriation, private medical care, or cancellation costs.

No vaccinations required

Generally, tap water is considered safe to drink in major cities, but bottled water is advisable in rural areas. Ensure you have adequate travel insurance and consult your doctor regarding recommended vaccinations and health precautions before travelling to Serbia. Be aware of tick-borne encephalitis and consider vaccination if engaging in outdoor activities.

Cards & payments

Card payments are accepted in most larger establishments, hotels, restaurants, and shops in cities. However, smaller businesses and rural areas may prefer cash. Always check if cards are accepted before making a purchase.
