Population Projections for the Republic of Serbia 2022–2052

The Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia is publishing the results of population projections for the period 2022–2052, presented by age and sex, both for the total population of the Republic of Serbia and by regions, areas, and municipalities/cities. The projections were made in thirty-two variants, obtained by combining different hypotheses about fertility, mortality, and migration.

The results of the projections indicate that the trend of depopulation and population aging in the Republic of Serbia will continue over the next thirty years, across all variants. According to the medium (expected) scenario, the population in 2052 will be 5,224,762, representing a decrease of about 1.5 million people compared to 2022. The smallest population loss is expected in the high fertility variant with no migration, which projects a population of 5,542,956 in 2052. In the constant variant, which assumes demographic conditions similar to those at the start of the projection period, the population would be below five million (4,755,444).
