What we have not done

This is a first pass, not a complete map of the market. Absence of a record here is not evidence that nothing applies. Nothing in this brief carries a named expert's judgement yet, so every reading is a document or a measurement, never somebody's experience of selling here.

Not fatal. Enough to make a launch feel harder than it should.

Serbia: 10 public holidays in the year ahead
Nager.Date+1

Serbia has at least 10 public holidays in the twelve months from 2026-09-09, against a Saturday and Sunday weekend, a figure two independent compilations agree on. The longest continuous shutdown in the next twelve months runs 4 days, 2027-02-13 to 2027-02-16.

Shipping, customs clearance and retail activation all stop on these days, and the long runs are where launches die.

Serbia: 2 official languages on one pack
Unicode Consortium

Serbia has 2 nationally official languages: Serbian at 99%, Serbian at 99%. A single-language pack leaves part of the market unaddressed.

Which language leads on the pack decides how much of the market can read what it is buying.

76B
Serbia: Serbian is spoken, not read
Unicode Consortium

99% of Serbia speaks Serbian and 5% can read it, so an audience that size is reachable in audio and video and not on a label.

A language most of its speakers cannot read is a broadcast audience, not a packaging decision.
