After the introduction notes, the author provides a short review of the systematics of this law and its nomotechnical features, followed by a critical analysis of the new institutions and legal solutions which are compared with the provisions of the previous Foreigners Act (2008) and relevant European Union legislation. The author concludes that the new Foreigners Act of the Republic of Serbia has significantly improved the legal framework for the exercise and protection of foreigners’ rights, concerning their entry, movement and stay in the country. Moreover, it has significantly contributed to a higher level of harmonization of the national law with the legal standards of the European Union.
