Serbia is a country in south-eastern Europe, in the center of the Balkan peninsula, bordering North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Albania. The capital is Belgrade and the official language is Serbian.

Legal basis for the residence permit

  • Setting up a company and running a business in Serbia, combined with renting an apartment in the country.
