Wanting to work in Belgrade

Hi there, 

There are several options available for living and working in Serbia. The two most viable options are the temporary residence permit and the sole proprietorship visas. Both of these visas are valid for a year and allows holders to live, work or study in Serbia. Holders must prove they have up to three months' worth of income by Serbian standards.

As a sole proprietor, you will also need to register your sole trader business and complete tax registration within 15 days (preduzetnik). You will then be able to apply for a work permit which would allow you to legally work in Serbia. 

We encourage you to visit the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website for the latest and most detailed information on visa requirements. I hope this helps and good luck on your move!
