Travel
Serbia’s largest airport is Nikola Tesla Airport, located in Belgrade. From there, you can continue your journey by bus, taxi, or rented car.
Vojvodina’s geographical location is favorable, as it is traversed by the E75 and E70 highways.
It is also accessible by water, thanks to the Tisa and Danube rivers.
If you opt for public transportation, buses are faster and more reliable than trains. Inter-city connections in the region are excellent.
Taxis in Vojvodina offer very affordable rides, the only thing to watch out for is finding an official taxi service, where the license plate’s last two letters are “TX”.
The Serbian Dinar
The official currency in Vojvodina is the Serbian dinar. Most towns have ATMs and currency exchange offices (menjačnica). Card payments are generally available, but it’s good to have cash on hand because some places only accept that.
The exchange rate of the Serbian dinar can be checked here:
Language and Script
Two scripts are used in Vojvodina: Latin and Cyrillic. There are seven official languages, which vary from municipality to municipality. The official languages include Serbian, Hungarian, Croatian, Slovak, Bunjevac, Romanian, and Rusyn. Information is usually available in multiple languages. In the capital of the autonomous province, English is widely spoken, but less so in rural areas.
Safety
After the wars of the 1990s, the number of tourists in the Balkans decreased, but this changed in the early 2000s. Today, Serbia is among the safest countries, attracting more and more tourists from all around the world. Vojvodina is known for its ethnic diversity and hospitality.
Smoking
Smoking is accepted in Vojvodina. Entertainment venues, cafés, and restaurants typically allow smoking, but often designate non-smoking areas. Smoking is strictly prohibited in official buildings and their immediate surroundings.
Police Registration
By law, visitors to Vojvodina are required to register with the police if they stay for more than 48 hours. Hotels and hostels take care of the registration process for their guests. However, those staying with private individuals or friends need to personally complete the registration at the local police station. Official personnel issue a certificate that may need to be shown at the border when leaving the country.
Welcome to Vojvodina and enjoy your stay!
