From January 1, 2026, Serbia is launching a mandatory electronic delivery note system, known as e-Delivery (E-Transport). This is a big step in digitizing logistics and improving transparency for all companies operating in Serbia.

What is Serbia’s e-Delivery (E-Transport)? 

The e-Delivery system replaces paper consignment notes with digital delivery notes, sent through a centralized government platform. It includes critical shipment details: sender, recipient, product info, transport data, timestamps, and confirmation of receipt. 

Goals of the system: 

  • Track goods in real time 

  • Prevent tax fraud 

  • Streamline logistics workflows 

  • Ensure better VAT compliance 

Serbia joins other countries in adopting digital logistics systems for a safer and more efficient transport sector.

Who Manages the System? 

The Serbian Ministry of Finance runs the system via a centralized clearance platform the same model used for Serbia’s e-invoicing system (SEF). 

You can try it already: 

DEMO Portal for e-Delivery 
Or via the DEMO version of the SEF Portal 

File Format: UBL 2.1 XML 

The e-delivery note must follow UBL 2.1 XML, Serbia’s standard for digital documents. This ensures automation, interoperability, and real-time validation. 

You’ll need systems that can: 

Generate UBL XML files 

Submit them through API, web, or mobile 

Receive electronic confirmations 

What’s Inside an E-Delivery Note?

Each document must include: Sender & recipient details Product codes, quantity, and descriptions Transport vehicle and time data Unique consignment numbers Proof of delivery (confirmation or rejection) Everything is securely stored and auditable by authorities.
