01 / A PLACE TO CALL HOME
A New Home.

Located at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, Serbia offers an appealing combination of city life, cultural heritage, business opportunities and regional connections.
Whether you're planning a personal move, building a business or establishing a new international base, Serbia is a destination worth exploring.

03 / A BASE FOR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS
Build your future in a country connected to the world.
Serbia maintains economic relationships with partners across Europe and beyond. Its geographic position, regional connections and international trade relationships make it a country worth considering for entrepreneurs and internationally oriented businesses.
Whether you're planning to establish a company, develop regional operations or relocate an existing business, Serbia may offer an interesting base from which to explore new opportunities.
East meets West
Explore business opportunities from a country connected to European markets and wider international networks.
A regional business base
Consider Serbia as a potential base for regional operations, business partnerships and activities across Southeast Europe.
Business and lifestyle
Combine your professional ambitions with a new place to live, work and build your future.
WHY CONSIDER SERBIA FOR BUSINESS?
Serbia’s position in Southeast Europe can support certain regional operating models. Its trade relationships include the EU and regional and other partners, but arrangements differ by partner, product, origin and applicable rules. Serbia is not an EU member and a Serbian company does not automatically obtain unrestricted market access.
Company formation should be planned together with banking, tax, accounting, licensing and actual management arrangements. Each activity needs an individual assessment; incorporating a company does not automatically grant residence rights. “East meets West” describes a geographic and commercial perspective, not a regulatory or tax guarantee.

08 / A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
Big move.
Good questions.
A starting point, not a substitute for advice on your circumstances. Requirements depend on nationality, purpose and current regulations.
Official Serbian residence information ↗Can foreigners relocate to Serbia?
Foreign nationals may relocate if they meet the entry, stay and, where relevant, work requirements applicable to their nationality and purpose. Your individual circumstances determine the appropriate route.
Do I need a residence permit to live in Serbia?
A short permitted visit is different from taking up residence. A longer stay may require a visa, temporary residence approval or a unified residence and work permit, depending on your nationality and purpose. Check the applicable rules before travelling.
Can opening a company help with relocation?
A genuine business activity may be relevant to certain residence or work pathways. Incorporating or owning a company does not automatically grant residence or work permission; eligibility and supporting evidence require separate assessment.
Can I relocate to Serbia with my family?
Family-related residence options may be available, depending on the main applicant’s status, the relationship and other requirements. Each family member’s documentation and eligibility should be reviewed.
Can I move to Serbia while working remotely?
Possibly, but remote work alone does not give you residence or work rights. Consider the applicable immigration route, your employment arrangements, social insurance and taxation in Serbia and abroad.
Will moving to Serbia make me a Serbian tax resident?
Tax residence depends on the facts, including residence or centre of business and vital interests, time spent in Serbia and any applicable tax treaty. The 183-day test is not the only consideration. Obtain advice on your complete cross-border position.
Can I start planning my relocation from abroad?
Yes. You can begin reviewing your objectives, documents and sequence of steps from abroad. Certain procedures, appointments or service providers may still require your personal attendance.
How much do relocation services cost?
Fees depend on the people relocating, the requested support and the complexity of the move. An individual proposal sets out the agreed scope, professional fees and relevant third-party costs before work begins.
How long does the process take?
Timing depends on the route, document readiness, appointments and the relevant authorities. We help plan the sequence but cannot promise a particular processing time or arrival date.
Does Northbridge guarantee residence approval?
No. The competent authorities make residence and work-permission decisions. We coordinate agreed support, not guaranteed approvals, tax outcomes or banking decisions.
