Visa C / Visa D - Diplomatic / OfficialDiplomatic

90 daysmultiple entry

Entry visas for holders of diplomatic and official/service passports on official government business or diplomatic assignments in Serbia.

Many countries have bilateral diplomatic/service passport visa exemption agreements with Serbia allowing visa-free entry for diplomatic and official passport holders. For instance, Russian diplomatic/official passport holders may enter visa-free for up to 90 days versus the 30-day limit for ordinary passport holders. Where no bilateral exemption exists, diplomatic/official passport holders apply through the same Visa C/D system. Serbia presented 12 new bilateral agreements for diplomatic passport exemptions to the National Assembly (Sao Tome and Principe, Togo, Maldives, Burundi, Guinea-Bissau, Uzbekistan, Ghana, Nepal, Republic of the Congo, Tajikistan, Eswatini, Saint Lucia) - these apply to diplomatic and official passports only, not ordinary passports.
