Serbia’s Transport and Infrastructure Minister Goran Vesic stated Sunday that agreements on unified electronic toll collection should soon be signed with Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as has already been done with North Macedonia.

Vesic told Pink he also spoke with the new Transport Minister of Greece, stating that he hopes that such an agreement could be signed with that country by the end of the year.

“Greece, North Macedonia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro are the most important countries for us when it comes to our people who use cars,” the Minister said.

Serbia’s unified electronic toll collection began on July 1 with North Macedonia as part of the “Open Balkans” initiative, and Vesic explained that the only thing necessary is for drivers to reconfigure the “tag” for electronic toll collection from prepaid to postpaid.

He added that they can do this at the Presevo border crossing itself, where a point of sale has been set up and that some one thousand people perform the reconfiguration on a daily basis and the same number buy electronic “tags”.
