Serbian citizens arriving from these countries are exempted from thе afore-mentioned conditions when entering the Republic of Serbia.
The following categories of foreign citizens are exempted from the afore-mentioned conditions when entering the Republic of Serbia from one of these four countries:
1) foreign citizens transiting through the territory of the Republic of Serbia, such as:
crews on freight motor vehicles in international transport road traffic. In case of international freight transit by road traffic, the same shall be limited to a period of up to 12 hours from the time of entry into the territory of the Republic of Serbia;
