WORKING LEGALLY IN SERBIA

International candidates must have the legal right to reside and work in Serbia.

Depending on the applicant’s nationality and circumstances, this may involve:

Visa D for employment
Temporary residence
Single residence and work permit
Other legally recognised work authorisation

Serbia now operates a combined single permit for temporary residence and work for many foreign workers.

The single permit can be issued for employment under an employment contract and may be valid for up to three years, depending on the circumstances and supporting evidence.

SINGLE RESIDENCE & WORK PERMIT

For foreign citizens who require it, the single permit combines temporary residence and work authorisation.

Applications are submitted electronically.

The application may be submitted by:

The foreign worker, or
The Serbian employer on behalf of the foreign worker.

Employers can also submit applications for groups of foreign workers where the legal requirements are met.

LABOUR MARKET TEST

For employment cases where a labour-market test is required, the Serbian employer registers the vacancy with the National Employment Service.

The employer can initiate the labour-market testing procedure and use the resulting identification number in the single-permit application.

The existence of an employment vacancy does not by itself guarantee that a foreign applicant will receive a permit.

VISA D

Some candidates may require a Serbian Visa D for employment before entering Serbia for longer-term work.

Requirements depend on nationality and individual circumstances.

Certain foreign citizens can submit employment-based residence applications without first obtaining Visa D, while others must complete the Visa D process.

Candidates will therefore be assessed individually.
