Serbia on the Road to the European Business Standards

Serbia's entry to the European Union is a priority of the Serbian Government. Sustainable economic development in Serbia is still largely dependent on the inflow of foreign investments. Foreign investors often face legal barriers that prevent efficient operations in Serbia, and for the development of local companies there is a need of harmonizing Serbian legislation with the EU regulations in order to increase legal security, business and competitiveness. The similarities and differences of business conditions in Serbia and the EU, customs and tax obstacles for competition development, changes in the Law on planning and construction, the legalization and restitution, the new agricultural policy of the Serbian Government and the importance of competition for Serbian market development will be the topics for the representatives of domestic and European institutions, Serbian government ministries andbusiness and industrial associations and companies.
