The Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunications has submitted 120,000 citizens' applications for subsidized use of annual holidays in Serbia on April 18, which is the maximum number of applications foreseen by the budget funds in 2019.

Thus, the voucher voucher action was completed before the scheduled deadline, which shows that this measure of domestic tourism incentives has been successfully implemented for the fifth year in a row.

This year, 600,000 dinars were allocated for the vouchers from the budget of the Republic of Serbia, which is more than the originally defined funds, because due to the great interest of the citizens, funds for additional 20,000 vouchers were subsequently allocated.

The most wanted destinations for the realization of the vouchers were Sokobanja, Zlatibor, Vrnjacka Banja, Sijarinska Banja and Ribarska Banja, while the greatest interest for this type of subsidized vacation was shown by the residents of Belgrade, Leskovac, Nis, Pancevo and Novi Sad.

Among the citizens interested in the use of vouchers, there were mostly pensioners (55.5%), followed by employees whose income does not exceed 60,000 dinars (32.7%) and unemployed persons (10.5%).

Applications for the use of vouchers in the amount of 5,000 dinars were submitted by citizens for a vacation for a minimum of five overnight stay in catering facilities outside the municipality of the voucher beneficiary or resident.

Last year, 100,000 vouchers were distributed and in 2017 91,907, which shows that citizens' interest in this campaign is growing year after year.
