About Serbia
Whether you’re looking to visit, live or work in Serbia—we can support your immigration needs at every stage of your journey.
If you’re a foreign national looking to visit, live and/or work in Serbia, several options are available.
- Business Visits: As a business visitor and depending on your citizenship, you'll generally require a Visa C to enter Serbia. Business visitors may conduct business activities for up to 90 days in a 180-day period but must remain on home payroll.
- Work Authorization: The main work authorization category is the Single Permit, generally granted for up to three years, and renewable in three-year increments.
- Internships/Traineeships: There is an intern-specific work authorization category in Serbia within the scope of the intra-company transfer work authorization. The intra-company transfer Single Permit is available to interns with a high level of education who have been employed by the sending entity for at least three months. Additionally, a separate Single Permit exists for training and professional development, which does not require prior employment with the sending entity.
- Self-employment: If you're an investor or entrepreneur, you may be eligible for a self-employment Single Permit. You'll need to register a business with the Serbian business agency and detail your business' local activities, your qualifications, and the jobs you intend to create, including their number and type.
Fragomen can also consult on citizenship matters and, as permitted within the confines of local law, may be able to offer citizenship assistance.
