30.04.202610:00:00UTC+00Serbia’s Year-on-Year GDP Growth Accelerates to 3.0% in Q1 2026

Serbia’s economy strengthened in early 2026, with gross domestic product (GDP) growth rising to 3.00% year-on-year in the first quarter, up from 2.20% in the fourth quarter of 2025. The latest data, updated on 30 April 2026, indicate a pickup in momentum after a more moderate pace of expansion at the end of last year.

Both the current and previous readings are based on year-on-year comparisons, measuring each quarter’s performance against the same quarter a year earlier. This acceleration from Q4 2025 to Q1 2026 suggests improving conditions in Serbia’s economy as it enters 2026, though more detailed sector data would be needed to identify the specific drivers behind the stronger growth.
