Orders, decorations, and medals of Serbia
State decorations of the Republic of Serbia (Serbian: Државна одликовања Републике Србије, romanized: Državna odlikovanja Republike Srbije) are regulated by the 2009 Law on Decorations.[1]
Decorations are divided into three grades: orders, medals and commemorative medals. There are six orders and three medals.[2][3]
State decorations are awarded by the President of the Republic, typically at the ceremonies held on the Statehood Day. They can be awarded to citizens of the Republic of Serbia, domestic legal entities and other subjects, as well as to foreign citizens, foreign legal entities and international organizations. Honors may also be awarded posthumously.
Proposers for awarding awards can be state bodies, provincial bodies, local self-government bodies, the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts as well as other organizations and associations. In addition to the proposal for the award, the consent of a certain ministry must be obtained - the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (for foreign citizens), the Ministry of Defence (for members, units and institutions of the Serbian Armed Forces) and the Ministry of Internal Affairs (for members of the Police of Serbia). The President of the Republic can also award decorations on his own initiative.
