Do I need a visa for Serbia?

Polish citizens do not need a visa or an electronic travel authorisation to enter Serbia for a tourist stay of up to 90 days. This permission does not permit paid work or study.

No vaccinations are required for travel to Serbia and none are recommended for this tourist route.

How long can I stay, and can I extend it?

Travel insurance is a condition of entry to Serbia. The European Health Insurance Card (EKUZ) may be accepted for emergency hospital treatment, but you should hold travel health insurance for the duration of your stay.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use my national ID card or my driving licence to enter Serbia?

You may use a Polish national identity card or a temporary passport; both are accepted for entry into Serbia. A driving licence is not accepted as a travel document.

Will I be asked to prove I have enough money for my trip?

You do not need to show proof of funds when entering Serbia; authorities do not require bank statements or cash evidence for this tourist route.

Is there an arrival registration or tourist card I must complete?

There is a mandatory arrival registration (melding) that must be completed online after you cross the border. If you stay with private hosts they should register you; hotels handle registration for guests.

What documents do children need to travel with me?

If you travel with children, they need their own valid passport, temporary passport or national ID card; no additional parental-consent or notarised letters are required.

How long must my passport be valid for entry?

Your passport or other accepted travel document must be valid for at least three months beyond the date of entry.

Do I have to declare cash when I enter Serbia?

If you carry more than €10,000 in cash you must declare it to customs on your own initiative on entry to Serbia.

What am I likely to be asked for at the border or at check-in?

Carry your travel document (passport, temporary passport or national ID card) and proof of travel insurance; border officers may check them at the checkpoint or when you check in for your transport.

Who completes the mandatory registration for me?

If you are staying with private individuals, ask your host to register you; if you stay in a hotel the hotel administration will register you on arrival.

Is Serbian healthcare covered automatically by EU arrangements?

The EKUZ may be honoured for emergency hospital treatment, but Serbia requires you to hold health insurance for the duration of your stay; you should purchase travel insurance that covers medical costs and, if desired, repatriation.

What if my passport is damaged or nearly full?

If your passport is damaged or unreadable, you risk being refused boarding or entry; travel on a valid passport, temporary passport or national ID card only.

Can I contact the Serbian embassy in Poland for help before I go?

Serbia maintains a diplomatic presence in Poland for consular assistance; the embassy can provide help but is not an application route for entry permission because no visa or authorisation is required for this tourist visit.

Where do I get the visa?

No application for entry permission is needed: you travel on your passport, temporary passport or national ID card and are admitted for up to 90 days. Serbia maintains an embassy/consulate in Poland for consular help if you need assistance while preparing or during travel.
