This is a blog about Serbian stamps. For now, blog covers contemporary issues from 2006, since independence of Serbia. Blog is primarly intended for stamp collectors.
Luckily, Post of Serbia has ePhilately site where you can find all stamps and philatelistic products issued from 2011 to nowadays, sorted by year, with descriptions about every stamp and catalogue information. There is version of the site in English language. You can find the site on this link: https://efilatelija.posta.rs/en/izdanja/
So, what is this blog about then? There are a few differences from ePhilately site. It wouldn't make sense to copy information about every stamp that you can already find on ePhilately.
When about deffinitive issues, ePhilately shows these stamps by year, but you need extra effort to check all reprints of definitives. Here they are all presented and sorted by theme and period they were issued, with all reprints and variants.
Commemorative issues can be hard to track by theme on ePhilately site because they are also sorted by year. As stamp collector, sometimes I struggle to sort stamps by themes. It's not always clear what is stamp about, especially because of the language or some motifs that people from other countries don't know about. So, focus on this blog is on themes.
With links inside posts, you can start your journey to Serbian sights, history and culture - through stamps!
Unlike ePhilately, this blog covers period 2006-2011.
Posts will be sorted as links at pages Definitive (regular) stamps and Commemorative stamps on menu bar. Also, on separate page you can find English translation of issuing plan for current year.
