Kazakhstan, Serbia set to increase trade turnover

Serbia is one of Kazakhstan's key partners on the Balkan Peninsula, and the two countries intend to enhance cooperation across all sectors. There is significant potential for trade and economic collaboration. Last year, the volume of bilateral trade grew by 23 percent, surpassing $91 million. In the first nine months of this year, the trade volume reached nearly $70 million, according to the State Revenue Committee. Notably, Kazakhstan’s main exports to Serbia include mineral fertilizers, propylene polymers, cotton wool, and plywood. Meanwhile, Serbia supplies Kazakhstan with cardboard, aluminum profiles, glass products, and metal structures. Additionally, there is considerable potential to expand exports of domestic agricultural products. Currently, over 50 joint companies with Serbian capital are registered in Kazakhstan. Notably, the legal framework between the two countries allows for 14 passenger flights under the open skies regime.
