The best fashion and gift stores - Serbia in 2024

Practical information : Treat yourself (& others) Serbia

Timetable

Here again, an interesting practical aspect. The hours are generally much more extensible than in France. The working day starts early because the sun, especially in winter, rises and sets earlier. The working day runs from 7am to 3pm, even if we feel a change towards a more European style; the shops are therefore based on these hours. Small shops open at 7am. The post office, banks and pharmacies are open at 8 am. The interest for the tourists that we are is that the shops do not close before 8 pm. Sometimes, the commercial practice extends until 10 pm. On the other hand, on Saturdays, as in Germany, you will not find a store open from 3pm. So don't forget to do your last shopping around noon, it's safer.

Budget & Tips

The cost of living is about 50% lower in Serbia, which gives you very good purchasing power, but not enough to spend lavishly. Serbian VAT is 20% and tourists with purchases over €150 can apply for a VAT refund at the tax-free center at the airport, according to the usual rules in force.

What's very local

In markets and small owner-operated stores, it is quite common to negotiate prices. This is obviously not the case in large stores or chains.
