Considering that the law applicable to maintenance agreements is to be determined by con ict-of-law rules of the Hague Protocol on the Law Appplicable to Maintenance Obligations of 2007, this paper aims to explain which provisions of this international instrument should be applied and in which manner be interpreted by Serbian notary public, when he/she participates in the conclusion of child support agreement and agreement on spousal maintenance. In addition, the author deals with situations in which parties want to conclude child support agreement before Serbian public notary after the final Serbian or foreign court decision, which determines the amount of maintenance, has been rendered.
