About the Serbia Passport
With a rank of 21, the Serbia passport lands at the start of the mid-table group. It offers visa-free entry to 89 destinations, and counting eTA, visa on arrival and e-Visa access lifts total mobility to 156.
Europe is where it performs best, with 42 visa-free destinations, and it is a useful travel document well beyond the continent. Oceania is the weakest region, with only three. Serbian citizens need no visa for France and the Schengen area, Japan, China, Brazil, Singapore or the United Arab Emirates. Australia is available on an e-Visa, but the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada all call for a visa before departure. Those three markets are the clearest gaps for frequent business travelers. A second citizenship such as Malta Citizenship by Merit could add up to 24 destinations.
