Background<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

On 15 March 2020 Serbian authorities declared state of emergency (\u201cSoE\u201d) on the entire territory of the Republic of Serbia. Upon initial confusion and restricted access to competent authorities and reduced working hours of all institutions, in order to achieve minimal standards of legal certainty, Government of the Republic of Serbia (\u201cGovernment\u201d) adopted legal framework which regulates deadlines and procedural aspects of communication with administrative and court authorities during SoE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be considered that delivery of the submissions and information provided during the SoE have been completed 15 (fifteen) days after the termination of the state of emergency. In addition, it is considered that the time limits that expire during the SoE, related to administrative actions, completion of administrative procedures and deciding on legal remedies, have expired 30 (thirty) days upon the termination of SoE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
