History
Serbian public-holiday guidance recognises Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday within the Easter break. The principal national observance follows the Serbian Orthodox Paschal calendar.
Why it matters
Monday closure extends the Easter weekend and affects offices, banks, schools and travel. Employees of other recognised Christian communities also have denomination-specific rights.
Observance
Families continue Easter meals and visits after Sunday worship. Serbian traditions include decorated eggs and the greeting “Hristos vaskrse.”
Travel and planning
Orthodox Easter Monday ends the four-day statutory Easter period and can concentrate return travel. Use the applicable Orthodox dates.
