Under Article 23 of Serbia’s Citizenship Law quoted by the source, an adult member of the Serbian people living outside Serbia may be admitted to citizenship without renouncing another nationality by submitting a written declaration that Serbia is considered their country. The source also states that citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina do not pay an admission fee.
According to the source, this is a separate route to Serbian citizenship that does not depend on residing in Serbia, provided the applicant can establish Serbian ethnic affiliation and meet the stated conditions. For people planning relocation, it may offer direct access to citizenship rather than requiring temporary or permanent residence first. It is primarily relevant to ethnic Serbs living abroad, including potential applicants from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Others should not treat this as a general citizenship route; it is worth checking only for applicants relying on ancestry or ethnic affiliation.
