]]> Consumer law in Serbia is the result of the legal reception of European consumer law, which has been implemented in the past ten years as part of Serbia’s legal harmonisation and EU accession processes.

Consumer protection in Serbia is an area of public policy that has bee established and is legally shaped under the auspices of the European integration process. The 2010 Consumer Protection Act (“2010 Consumer Act”) introduced consumer protection rules into our legislation based, for the first time, on EU law as part of the legal harmonisation process with the acquis communautaire, as well as previously assumed obligations under the Stabilisation and Association Agreement (SAA).

Undoubtedly, the key problem facing consumer protection is not legal norms, but the mechanisms that ensure their application in practice. In order to improve the current situation regarding the application of consumer rights, possible options for improving the institutional, procedural and organisational framework have been defined, based on previous experience in the work of consumer organisations as well as comparative-legal models and the previous practice of relevant domestic institutions.

]]> Specifically, the identification of problems and obstacles faced by consumers and civil society organisations in the field of enforcement should be ensured, to work towards providing a higher level of protection for citizens’ rights and interest. Secondly, a documentary basis should be provided for the development of recommendations for improvements in this area. Finally, based on the findings of the research, it is necessary to develop options for establishing a mechanism that enables the involvement of consumer and other organisations in the monitoring citizens’ problems in enforcement proceedings and proposing measures to address these problems.

]]> The aim of the study is to explore the current state of competition policy in Serbia, identify and consider the key obstacles and shortcomings that hinder the full and adequate implementation of the rules of competition protection, and to make recommendations for improvement of competition policy.

The recommendations are primarily intended for decision makers in competition policy and legislation, as well as for those who are responsible for the proper implementation of the legal framework. The study is focused on the rules of the competition and their application, while the state aid control section is included to the extent necessary for the understanding of its importance in the context of a functioning system in line with EU standards.
