Serbia travel guide for Canadians

Canadians do not need a visa for tourist visits up to 90 days. Bring a passport valid 6 months, evidence of accommodation, funds and a return ticket.

Serbia allows visa‑free entry for Canadian passport holders for stays of up to 90 days within a 180‑day period. Travelers must have a passport valid at least six months beyond the intended departure date, proof of sufficient funds (approximately €50 per day) and a confirmed onward or return ticket. A hotel reservation or invitation letter may be requested at the border.

Canada maintains an embassy in Belgrade (address: Bulevar kralja Aleksandra 71, 11000 Belgrade). The embassy provides consular assistance, passport services and emergency support for Canadians. For urgent matters outside Belgrade, the Canadian embassy in Budapest, Hungary, can be contacted.

Average daily budget for a mid‑range traveller is CAD 80–120, covering accommodation (CAD 40–70), meals (CAD 20–35), transport and entry fees. A 7‑day itinerary therefore costs roughly CAD 560–840, excluding international flights.

Direct flights from Toronto to Belgrade are not available; typical routes connect via European hubs (e.g., Frankfurt, Paris, Istanbul). Total travel time is 9–12 hours including layover. Flights depart from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and arrive at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG).

Serbia uses type C and F plugs, 230 V at 50 Hz. Canadian travellers should bring a compatible plug adapter and, if their devices are not dual‑voltage, a voltage converter.

Customary tip is about 10 % in restaurants; rounding up the bill in cafés and taxis is common. Service staff generally appreciate cash tips handed directly.

Dial 112 for all emergencies (police 192, fire 193, ambulance 194). The Canadian embassy in Belgrade can assist with consular emergencies.
