The Company law obliges that all the company papers which are sent to clients must include, among other things, the company identification number. If that is not the case then it is considered that the company broke the law. This Law also predicts the fines which are in the range from 100.000 RSD to 1 000 000 RSD.
The registration number is also an obligatory element of those documents which accompany goods according to the Trade Law. Those are documents that include the documents on purchase, production, and sale of goods. This Law also proposes fines for those who fail to provide the documents for the trade of goods. These fines are different for individuals and legal persons. These fines are in the range from 500 000 RSD to 2 000 000 RSD for a legal person and 50 000 RSD to 500 000 RSD for the individuals.
The interest rate in Serbia is reduced to 2.5% during this year. This was done by the National bank of the Republic of Serbia. They decided to bring this measure to increase economic growth and support money loans. This decision was approved by a great number of economists who are confident that the loans will become more accessible both for the legal persons and the individuals.
When the interest rate is decided, the National bank must be very careful not to get wrong. They have to find some average value. If they don’t do that it can demotivate the economy (if the rate is too high) or inflation can increase (if the rate is too low).
Also, the National bank must always control inflation, especially during this year. They predict that inflation will go up and down within the 3 percent in the next 24 months.

The new Tax Administration program was adopted by the Serbian government. This program will be applied from July 1, 2019. This program was adopted because the number of organizational units in Serbia was decreased from 78 to 37.
This law can only bring positive things because experts think that this can increase quality and productivity.
The Tax Administration also decided to found different departments, located in various locations within our country where those who pay taxes can present their tax returns. These departments are there to help citizens with different kinds of taxes like for example the tax on inheritance and gifts or tax on carrying and usage of goods.
Tax returns can be submitted in two ways: paper form or electronically.
But this would not have a bad influence on Tax Administration offices. They will still have its main role and be in contact with the taxpayers
The registration of non – resident and individual taxpayers will be done in the main office of the Tax Administration, starting from June 28, 2019. It is the same case with getting TaxID.
Everybody can get informed about these new units on the official website of the Tax Administration.
