Regulatory Framework
The Digital Assets Law regulates issuing, secondary trading, and services related to digital assets in Serbia. The NBS says providing virtual-currency services without prior licensing is prohibited and constitutes a criminal offence. Check the NBS's current register of virtual-currency providers; appearing there evidences the specific listed services, not the safety of a transaction or other products. Virtual currencies do not have the legal status of money or currency under the law.
