Greece: visa decisions in Serbia
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 298 | 276 | 17 | 5.7% | 55.4% |
| 2024 | 668 | 643 | 14 | 2.1% | 54.6% |
| 2025 | 1,037 | 1,020 | 11 | 1.1% | 60.1% |
In 2025, Greece’s embassy and consulates in Serbia (Belgrade) received 1,037 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 1,020. 1.1% of applications were refused. In 2024 the rate was much the same, 2.1%. Applications rose by 55% compared with 2024 (668).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.7% of the applications lodged in Serbia that year. Greece’s consulates worldwide refused 14.5%. Greece was the 10th most applied-for Schengen state in Serbia.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Serbia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
