Road signs in Serbia

The road signs, used on the Serbian road network, are regulated by the "Regulation of Traffic Signs" (Serbian Cyrillic: Правилник о саобраћајној сигнализацији, Serbian: Pravilnik o saobraćajnoj signalizaciji, which was last time modified in 2017.

The road signs follow the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals of 1968, and the former Yugoslav standard road signs, used by the successor states of SFR Yugoslavia. Inscriptions are in both Cyrilic and Latin alphabets. They are also used in Kosovo, although some of these signs were superseded by the Albanian road sign system, itself a copy of the Italian road sign system. In Montenegro, these road signs are only written in the Latin script.

Category E: Direction signs

Serbia (and also the rest of Yugoslavia) uses a slightly different color-coding system for routes, compared to most European nations. Along with Germany and Norway, the former Yugoslav countries are the only ones to use black text on yellow for non-roadworks purposes. The color coding is as such:

Panel background	Border	Lettering	Usage
Green	White	White	Motorways
Blue	White	White	Expressways
Yellow	Black	Black	State (trunk) roads
Brown	White	White	Recreational attractions
White	Black	Black	Inner-city destinations
