Double Taxation Treaties

If a resident taxpayer earns profit by conducting business in another state and tax was paid on that profit in another state, it shall be granted a tax credit on its enterprise profit tax account determined in conformity with the provisions of this Corporate Profit Tax Law, amounting to the tax paid in another state. The referred tax credit may not be greater than the amount that would be calculated by applying the provisions of the aforementioned Law on the profit accrued abroad.

The same right is enjoyed by a taxpayer who earns revenue and pays personal income tax in another country, provided there is a Double Taxation Treaty with that country. At the moment the following countries have signed the Double Taxation Treaty with Serbia:
