Fruška Gora fee: do exempt residents have to register, and where do charges come from?

Since 5 November cameras in Fruška Gora National Park record every car. In recent days Russian-language Telegram channels about Serbia have been writing that the exemption for residents of the 20 nearby municipalities works only after registration, and that people with plates from those municipalities are receiving charges anyway. We checked what the park and the Serbian media say, as of 9 November 2026.

Is registration needed?

Officially, no. The park’s acting director told Intermagazin that people with prebivalište in the listed municipalities do not have to file a separate request, and that the right depends on the permanent address, not on the letters on the number plate. 021.rs and Sremske novine also write that residents are exempt automatically. The list of municipalities includes Beočin, and with it Rakovac.

We found no report in Serbian media of an exempt resident being charged. Such cases may be discussed in social media groups, and the system cannot see anyone’s permanent address, only the plate. So it makes sense to check your plate yourself (see below).

Where does a charge come from?

Nothing is sent to private owners: the portal’s user guide mentions no letters, text messages or e-mails. One of the editors of this site drove through the park twice on 8 November and received nothing, which fits. On 9 November the portal showed no charges for that car, registered in Rakovac: “Nema putovanja za naplatu” (no trips to pay). So for Rakovac the exemption worked without any request. A second check on 12 November, four days after the trips, showed the same: no charges appeared later either. Charges can be seen only on the portal: enter the plate without spaces on enaplatafruskagora.co.rs and press “Provera zaduženja”. The list shows each pass with date, place, photo and amount.

You pay there too: by card (Visa, MasterCard, DinaCard, Maestro, American Express) or with a payment slip (uplatnica) generated by the portal, at a bank, at the post office or by mobile banking, also via QR code. The exemption is only for people: company vehicles pay even if the company is registered in one of the 20 municipalities (Ozon), and companies receive a notice with a deadline. According to 021.rs and Intermagazin, an owner who does not pay in time gets a reminder (opomena), and further collection steps may follow; a deadline in days and a fine per unpaid pass have not been published.

What to do if you are exempt

1. Check your plate on the portal after your first trips through the park.
2. If the list is empty, there is nothing to do.
3. If a charge appears although your prebivalište is in one of the 20 municipalities, file the exemption request instead of paying. You need your name, e-mail, address, municipality, JMBG, ID card number, vehicle registration number and plate, plus scans of the ID card (očitana lična karta) and of the vehicle registration (saobraćajna dozvola). The confirmation with the request number comes by e-mail; the decision appears on the status page.
4. Questions: office@npfruskagora.rs, 021 463 666, Monday to Friday 8:00–16:00 according to the guide.

Foreigners

The law speaks of prebivalište. The Telegram posts say that for foreigners this means permanent residence (stalno nastanjenje); the park has not said this publicly, nor whether a temporary residence permit counts. If a charge appears, file the request with your documents and ask the park.
