A roundtable discussion was held at the eGovernment Centre on 22 October 2026 as part of the public consultation on the Draft Government Programme for the Simplification of Administrative Procedures and Regulations “e-PAPIR” for the 2026–2030 period, organised by the Public Policy Secretariat.
The event brought together representatives of public administration, the business sector and civil society, who engaged in an interactive discussion to exchange views, experiences and proposals aimed at further simplifying and modernising administrative procedures.
The public consultation was opened by Dušan Kuzmanović, Acting Director of the Public Policy Secretariat. Dragan Lazarević, President of the Information and Communication Technologies Sector at the Serbian Association of Employers, also addressed the participants, highlighting the importance of cooperation between public administration and the business sector in simplifying administrative procedures and improving the business environment.
The roundtable also presented the results achieved to date under the e-PAPIR Programme. On this occasion, Sanja Volić, Head of the Department for the Management of the Register of Administrative Procedures and the Modernisation of Public Administration Services, highlighted that 608 administrative procedures had been optimised and 219 digitised, generating annual savings of more than EUR 32 million for businesses and citizens. She went on to present the Draft Programme and the proposed measures and activities to be implemented over the next five-year period. These include the establishment of a Single Register of Non-Tax Revenues to enable electronic payment of all fees and charges associated with administrative procedures conducted by authorities at the national, provincial and local self-government levels.
Ninoslav Kekić, Deputy Director, presented selected activities envisaged under the Draft Action Plan, highlighting those related to the digitalisation of administrative procedures within business episodes in the media, beverage production, pharmacy and dental practice sectors, as well as in the areas of justice and ATA Carnets. He emphasised that, under the business life events approach, all relevant information and the option to initiate electronic services would be available in one place, covering all stages of business operations.
The public consultation on the Draft e-PAPIR Programme for the 2026–2030 period is open until 28 October. Interested stakeholders may submit their comments, proposals and suggestions via the еKonsultacije Portal, thereby contributing to the improvement of the proposed Programme.
