Elektronska registracija osnivanja privrednih društava u Republici Srbiji

Abstract

In this paper author presents an overview of the procedure of electronic registration of the companies' formation in the Serbian law. This procedure was made possible for the first time in 2017 for the purpose of electronic registration of entrepreneurs, and shortly afterward the establishment of a single-member and multi-member limited liability company. The procedure is performed entirely electronically. It is possible to submit electronically the registration application for founding a company, as well as to electronically sign the application using a qualified electronic signature. The possibility of composing and submitting electronic or digitized documents and their electronic signing is also envisaged. Finally, electronic registration ends with the delivery of the registrar's decision in the electronic form to the registered e-mail address. The introduction of the electronic registration procedure, and then its wider and more efficient application, represents one of the important goals in further improvement in the efficiency of the procedure of establishing a company in Serbia. This procedure came to the fore during the Covid-19 pandemic, and the experiences from that period may be important in the further improvement of this procedure.
