As of February 1, 2025, new adjusted excise duty rates have come into effect in the Republic of Serbia. This change impacts various excise products, including petroleum derivatives, alcoholic beverages, coffee, and tobacco products. The Government of the Republic of Serbia made this decision based on the annual consumer price index to align with inflation and other economic factors.

For petroleum derivatives, the new excise duty rates have been applied since February 7, 2025. For example, the excise duty on unleaded gasoline is now 70.11 dinars per liter, while gas oil is subject to an excise duty of 72.09 dinars per liter. In the alcoholic beverages sector, the excise duty on strong alcoholic drinks is now 56,057.29 dinars per hectoliter, while beer and low-alcohol drinks are taxed at 32.04 dinars per liter.

Tobacco products are also affected by the new excise duties. As of July 1, 2025, the excise duty on cigarettes will be 105.40 dinars per pack, while the duty on cigarillos is set at 29.68 dinars per piece. Additionally, an excise duty on nicotine pouches has been introduced, now amounting to 5,050.21 dinars per kilogram.

Apart from excise duty increases, a stock inventory requirement for cigarettes has also been introduced for all manufacturers and importers. On February 1, 2025, all producers and wholesale traders must conduct an inventory of cigarettes in their warehouses, excluding excise warehouses. This inventory must be submitted to the relevant authorities no later than February 15, 2025. Failure to comply with this obligation may result in fines of up to 25% of the total cigarette sales revenue for the previous six months.
