Serbia is not the EU member and you can expect roaming charges which are high especially for data. In order to avoid roaming charges<\/strong> you can use WiFi which is available for free in most of the coffee places, Naxis Taxi vehicles, WCEU venues and every park in the city center.<\/p>\n

If you need to be online 24\/7, we suggest buying one of the SIM cards for tourists or shorter stay.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mobile operators<\/h2>\n

There are three big mobile operators and one minor. While Telenor<\/strong> and MTS<\/strong> have a very good coverage, you might experience slight issues and lower quality connection with VIP Mobile<\/strong> and the minor operator Globaltel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Be careful!<\/strong> Though you can buy your local SIM card immediately after landing on Belgrade’s Nikola Tesla Airport we recommend to not get it there<\/strong> as we heard some shops will sell you a 20\u20ac SIM card instead.
\nWe recommend buying your tourist SIM card in any Kiosk you can find in the city.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are the packages that can be interesting to you from each operator.<\/p>\n

Telenor<\/h3>\n

We highly suggest Telenor because of the quality and reliability. Choose prepaid Internet Tourist package<\/strong> which contains a SIM card and promotional 10 GB at the price of 545 RSD<\/strong> (less than 5 EUR) with included VAT. As part of Telenor Prepaid Internet Tourist package, you will get a prepaid Internet card with 10 GB of free traffic which you can use within 15 days from the package activation.<\/p>\n
