Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get from Sofia Airport to Belgrade?
The most convenient way is by private transfer: your driver picks you up in the arrivals hall and takes you directly to your hotel in Belgrade or to Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG) via the Kalotina–Gradina border crossing and Niš with no vehicle changes. By public transport, the route usually involves multiple transfers.
How long does the drive from Sofia Airport to Belgrade take?
It usually takes about 4.5 to 5 hours for approximately 400–420 km, depending on traffic and the border crossing.

What documents do I need to cross the border into Serbia?
EU/EEA Citizens: You can travel visa-free for stays of up to 90 days. A valid national ID card or passport is sufficient for crossing the border.
Travelers from Non-EU Countries: The Kalotina–Gradina border crossing is an external border of the EU and the Schengen area. If you travel with a visa and subsequently return to Bulgaria or another EU country, you will need a Schengen visa for double or multiple entry (Double / Multiple Entry), as entering Serbia means leaving the Schengen area. Please check the current entry requirements for your nationality before traveling.
Can I book a one-way trip, or is a round-trip mandatory?
You can book either a one-way trip or a round-trip, depending on the length of your stay.
Can I book for a large group?
Yes, up to 16 people online, 17–24 in a large minibus, and custom quotes for 24+ passengers.
Is there a time difference between Sofia and Belgrade?
Yes. Serbia is in the Central European Time zone (CET), which is one hour behind Bulgaria. For a transfer from Belgrade to Sofia, please specify your pickup time in local Serbian time. Your driver will follow the local time in Belgrade.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight in real time. In the event of a delay, your driver will adjust the pickup time accordingly – with no additional fees.
Are there any additional fees charged at the border?
No. The fixed price confirmed at booking is final – there are no hidden border fees.
