100,000 Serbia Work Permits for 2026: Top 4 Sectors & Salary Guide for Nigerians
Serbia is offering up to 100,000 work permits in 2026, targeting in-demand roles in IT, construction, manufacturing, and healthcare. Entry-level developers can earn €1,200–€1,800 monthly, while skilled trades like welding or electrical work may pay around €1,700. Many tech firms use English and offer hybrid or remote work. Construction firms need civil engineers, project managers, masons, carpenters, electricians, and more, often providing on-site accommodation. Manufacturing plants seek machine operators, assemblers, and CNC programmers with generous overtime pay. Hospitals nationwide are short of doctors, nurses, and medical technicians. All foreign workers apply through the Single Permit system—a unified biometric card for residence and work. Employers conduct a labor market test and secure the work permit approval. Successful applicants then obtain a long-stay D-Visa in Abuja, travel to Serbia, register their address, and collect their unified permit. Follow the D-Visa route from Nigeria; do not attempt to convert a tourist visa.
