The "Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Türkiye and the
Government of the Republic of Serbia on the Mutual Abolition of Visas",
signed in Belgrade on 12 July 2010, entered into force on 3 December 2010.
In this context, diplomatic, private, service, ordinary and travel document
holders are exempt from visa for their touristic visits or transit passes
to and from Serbia, provided that the total residence time does not exceed
90 days within six months from the first entry date.
As of 3 May 2022, Serbia has abolished all restrictions brought on by
COVID-19 for entry into and exit from the country. Serbias’s land, air and
sea borders are open to passanger entries and exits. Cargo transportation
also continues.
It is recommended that the passport validity period should be at least 6
months when entering Serbia. However, in practice, during transit passes,
it is observed that Serbian authorities show tolerance to passport holders
whose passport validity period is less than 6 months when they enter and
exit the country.
It is also recommended that our citizens who will travel to Serbia by land
or airway, should have the following documents with them.
- Return ticket,
- Sufficient cash, (which could be calculated as 50 Euros per day)

- Invitation letter, if it is a business trip
- Suitable visa or document to prove the purpose of the visit, if the aim
is to work, study or other specific purposes
In addition, in the interview made while entering to the country by the
border police during passport control, it is important to state the purpose
of visiting Serbia with truthful and clear expressions, and to give short
and clear answers to the questions.
In accordance with the current Social Security Agreement between Türkiye
and Serbia, it is possible for our citizens who will visit Serbia to
receive free service at Serbian State Hospitals for emergency health
problems that may arise if they obtain formulas with the TR/SRB formularies
from the Social Security Institution (SGK) Directorates before their visit.
Travel between Serbia and Kosovo:
It is possible to cross into Kosovo via Serbia and re-enter Serbia.
However, direct entry into Serbia is not possible in practice, if one has
entered Kosovo from a third country. In this case, our citizens must enter
Serbia using the Kosovo - Third Country - Serbia route.
The Limit of cash that peoplecan have on their person:
Cash over 10,000 Euros per person, which is not declared while entering
Serbia is confiscated by the Serbian authorities. In this context, it is
