Enforcement of judgments and arbitral awards in Serbia – The Enforcement of Judgments 2025

Serbia offers a comprehensive legal framework for the enforcement of judgments and arbitral awards, supported by a network of domestic laws, bilateral treaties and international conventions. While procedures are designed to be efficient, practical challenges such as tracing debtor assets and balancing creditor and debtor protections, navigating recognition proceedings for foreign judgments and awards remain. Costs, timelines and available remedies vary considerably depending on the nature of the claim and the means of enforcement selected.

On this basis, Aleksandar Ristić and Stefan Šilobad provide the Serbia chapter of the Chambers Enforcement of Judgments 2025 Global Practice Guide. Their contribution outlines the key legal instruments, practical considerations and enforcement options available under Serbian law, offering valuable guidance to parties seeking to secure or resist enforcement in this jurisdiction.
