Srbija: inspekcija hrane

In Serbia the app follows the Law on Food Safety (ZBH) and the Law on Sanitary Supervision (ZSN); two inspectors check, kitchen temperatures come from HACCP guidance, and workers need a health book renewed every 6 months.

Inspekcijsko tijelo

Veterinary Inspection (Veterinarska inspekcija) and Sanitary Inspection (Sanitarna inspekcija)

Two inspectors check. The Veterinary Inspection (Ministry of Agriculture) checks food safety and is the main inspector for a normal restaurant. The Sanitary Inspection (Ministry of Health) checks premises, water and staff health (ZBH, art. 12; ZSN, art. 2–4 and 27). Visits are risk-based and unannounced. No fixed time between visits is published.

After a visit the inspector writes a record (zapisnik) and a decision (rešenje) with a deadline. The inspector can ban use of the premises and seal it, and order unsafe food to be withdrawn or destroyed (ZBH, art. 74; ZSN, art. 27 and 31). Fines are in dinars. ZBH offences: a company 150,000 to 1,000,000 and an entrepreneur 250,000 to 500,000 (art. 80–83). ZSN offences: a company 150,000 to 1,000,000 and an entrepreneur 50,000 to 500,000 (art. 34–37).
