SERBIA

Please note that while we are advising that the use of Serbian and Montenegran airspace is safe, the UN sanctions prohibit you from Landing or taking off at any airport in Serbia and Montenegro. However, as indicated in our letter of 9 June 1992, the UN sanctions do not prohibit you from paying money to, or for the benefit of, any person connected with Serbia or Montenegro providing unless payments are made to a blocked account in accordance with.
Treasury instructions.
The Republics of Croatia and Slovenia are members of ICAO and are responsible for issuing NOTAMS concerning their airspace.
In order to avoid any future confusion and by way of clarification, you should be aware that the above advice relates to the operation of scheduled and IT charter flights involving members of the public.
As indicated previously, the advice issued by the Department is just advice and you may decide to ignore it. Should you do so, would you please let us know so that we may notify the appropriate British Embassy representative in Yugoslavia. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that the information given here is accurate, no legal responsibility is accepted for any errors, omissions or misleading statements in that information and neither the Department of Transport nor Her Majesty's Government
