Can a distressed Serbian company pursue formal restructuring instead of liquidation, and what are the steps?

In Serbia
Zuletzt aktualisiert: Nov 15, 2025
We are a small firm with significant debt and dwindling cash flow. I want to understand the process under Serbian law, including required filings, timelines, creditor involvement, and chances of avoiding liquidation.

Under Serbian law a company in financial distress can either (a) try consensual/out-of-court restructuring, (b) file (or be forced into) court-supervised reorganisation within insolvency proceedings, or (c) enter liquidation (bankruptcy). The court insolvency procedure ("stečaj") transfers control to the bankruptcy administrator, invites creditor claims, and leads either to creditor-approved reorganisation or to liquidation. Whether you can avoid liquidation depends mainly on (i) the viability of the business and realistic cash-flow plan, (ii) whether key creditors (banks, largest suppliers, tax authorities) agree to a restructuring, and (iii) timing — early action materially improves chances.
