Serbian president Aleksandar Vučić said a 6,000-dinar payment from the Shareholder Fund is planned for September 22. The law would need to change for all adults to be covered. The Economy Ministry clarified that the number of shares does not itself increase the amount: a higher payment is possible only through inherited entitlement; this is an announced plan, not an approved payment.

Presidential statement

N1: 6,000 dinars announced from the Shareholder Fund

Legal caveat

021: the current law has a narrower free-share eligibility rule

021 also gives the date and amount, but notes that the existing rule is tied to adulthood by December 31, 2007 and the free-share law's conditions. The report therefore highlights the need for a legal amendment.

N1's initial calculation

N1: initial calculation based on the number of share packages

N1 considered a scenario in which 24 seven-share packages could produce 144,000 dinars. The report presented this as a calculation based on the announced base amount, not as confirmed entitlement for a specific recipient.

Ministry clarification

Danas: ministry rejects payment calculation based on share count

Danas reports the Economy Ministry's response: the law separates the right to free shares from the right to cash compensation. The 6,000-dinar amount concerns the latter and does not increase with the number of shares; a higher payment is possible only through a deceased holder's inherited entitlement.

Read source

Overall takeaway

The date and base amount were announced, but eligibility for all adults still depends on a legal change. The number of shares does not itself raise the amount; an increase is possible only through inherited entitlement.

What this means for residents

Do not treat payment as guaranteed

There is no report yet of an adopted amendment or a payment procedure, so rely on official decisions rather than the announcement alone.

Shares do not multiply payment

According to the ministry, compensation is tied to entitlement-holder status, not to the number of shares in an account.
