Today, Mirjana Čizmarov, Director of the Civil Aviation Directorate, and acting Assistant Minister, Head of the Logistics Sector in the Ministry of the Interior, Borisha Roljić, signed an Air Transport Security Cooperation Agreement at the 'Nikola Tesla' Airport.
Under the provisions of this Agreement, the Civil Aviation Directorate has supplied computer equipment to the Ministry of the Interior, specifically intended for the training of police officers of the Border Police Administration who are responsible for conducting additional security screenings of passengers, as well as the inspection of their carry-on and checked baggage, cargo, and mail at airports.
In expressing his gratitude, Head of the Logistics Sector Roljić highlighted that this equipment would facilitate daily training and skill enhancement for police officers. This, in turn, is aimed at achieving a higher level of efficiency and effectiveness in safeguarding civil aviation against unlawful interference and detection of prohibited items.
"In accordance with the Air Transport Act and the National Aviation Security Program, following the completion of training and successful certification by the Civil Aviation Directorate, 35 police officers have been certified to work in this specific field," stated Roljić. He further emphasized that the provided equipment will significantly contribute to their ongoing professional development.
Director Čizmarov underscored the critical importance of this form of collaboration under the air transport law. The shared objective among all stakeholders in the aviation industry is to ensure the safe and secure flow of passengers and cargo.
"The Ministry of the Interior is a natural partner in this area. Additional training for police officers will serve as a substantial enhancement to overall civil aviation safeguarding against unlawful interference," Čizmarov said.

The Civil Aviation Directorate of the Republic of Serbia is hosting the annual Central Data Distribution Region (CDDR) meeting of the international Cospas-Sarsat programme, held from February 3 to 5, 2026, at the SMATSA Area Control Centre premises.
The international Cospas-Sarsat programme is a non-profit, intergovernmental organization that operates a global satellite system for detecting and locating activated distress radio beacons, forwarding this information to the relevant search and rescue coordination centres. Since its inception, the system has assisted in saving more than 50,000 lives worldwide.
The annual meeting in Belgrade has gathered representatives from CDDR member states, including France, the United Kingdom, Norway, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands, Poland, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, and Tunisia, confirming the significance of the event and Serbia’s active role in the international search and rescue system.
The gathering was opened by the Director of the Directorate, Mirjana Čizmarov, who emphasized that hosting the meeting in Belgrade represents a token of recognition and trust, as well as a confirmation of the Directorate's capacity as the competent authority for the organization and coordination of the national search and rescue system. Following her remarks, David Poudevigne, Head of the French Mission Control Centre (MCC), addressed the participants, reminding them that Cospas-Sarsat is a living, dynamic network and that such meetings foster productive and substantive discussions.
During the three-day event, participants will have the opportunity to discuss operational and technical issues, exchange experiences, and harmonize activities aimed at further improving the efficiency of international cooperation in the field of search and rescue systems.
As part of the development of new technologies and air mobility concepts, Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft represent a new technological category that requires appropriate regulatory oversight.
Given the innovative nature of these aircraft and the specifics of their future operational use, the Civil Aviation Directorate of the Republic of Serbia is continuously and intensively working on preparing a suitable national regulatory framework. This process is based on the constant monitoring of European regulations, guidelines, and regulatory practices, as well as coordinated cooperation with all competent authorities and institutions at both national and international levels.
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is currently establishing a regulatory framework for VTOL aircraft, covering requirements for aircraft certification, operations, crew training, and integration into existing airspace.
To prepare for the introduction of VTOL aircraft, the Republic of Serbia has amended its air transport and pilot training rules by incorporating the relevant European Commission regulation into national legislation. This provides the legal framework for the operation of this type of aircraft.
Parallel to the adoption of the relevant regulations, communication has been established with VTOL aircraft manufacturers in order to become familiar with the certification requirements applied by the competent authorities in the countries where these aircraft are produced, considering that these involve new technologies and standards.
Additionally, the Directorate's inspectors have undergone specialized training by participating in international seminars and workshops, to enable them to effectively handle anticipated cases related to this type of aircraft.
These activities by the Directorate are conducted in accordance with international standards and recommended practices, to ensure the timely response of the Republic of Serbia to the challenges and opportunities arising from this new generation of aviation technologies.
To the Director of the Civil Aviation Directorate of the Republic of Serbia, Mirjana Čizmarov, on January 5, 2026, a recognition plaque was presented during the ceremonial Christmas concert marking the 35th anniversary of the successful operation of Prince Aviation.
The recognition plaque, awarded as an expression of gratitude for exceptional cooperation, trust, and long-standing partnership, was presented to Director Čizmarov by the co-founder of Prince Aviation, Slobodan Stričević, and the company’s director, Srđan Kragojević.
The awarded plaque represents a confirmation of the Directorate’s many years of dedicated work aimed at strengthening the civil aviation system, through continuous support and open dialogue with aviation entities across the territory of the Republic of Serbia.
