We offer a wide range of branded merch in this category:
Serbian and EU context. The standard VAT rate in Serbia is 20% (most products), with a reduced 10% rate for selected services (hospitality, printed publications). From 2023, e-Faktura is mandatory via the Tax Administration for all B2B transactions over 10,000 RSD. Serbia is an EU candidate country, so many clients also follow the GDPR-equivalent (Personal Data Protection Law). Corp-Merch is headquartered in Beograd (Novi Beograd), with warehouses and partners in Novi Sad, Niš and Kragujevac. Core currencies are RSD (official) and EUR (international reference for larger procurement) — payment by bank transfer (domestic and SEPA for EU), Dina cards, and Stripe for online. This paragraph covers: paper, cardboard, business cards.
Pricing framework. Prices are quoted in RSD at the NBS mid-rate to EUR, with 20% VAT included (or 10% reduced rate for selected categories). For enterprise clients we offer framework agreements with volume discount tiers — from 5% on orders of 50,000 RSD, 10% from 250,000 RSD, 15% from 1,000,000 RSD. Invoices are issued through the e-Faktura system of the Republic of Serbia Tax Administration, with all registered VAT payers. Tender conditions, multi-year framework agreements and dynamic purchasing systems are supported for paper, cardboard, business cards.
Lead time. Standard cycle for paper, cardboard, business cards — 7-12 working days (digital prepress + production + quality control + delivery). For projects with advanced personalisation (Pantone embroidery, multicolor printing, custom packaging) allow 14-20 working days. Express urgent orders (up to 5 working days) are available from the catalog stock in Beograd and Novi Sad. During peak seasons (Božić, Uskrs, Tourism Fair, Belgrade Book Fair, June conferences) plan 2 weeks ahead due to production capacity pressure.
Seasonal planning. Srbija has distinctive B2B-merch seasons — January-February (Sveti Sava, Serbian New Year per Julian calendar, annual plans), March (March 8 Women's Day), April-May (Uskrs, spring conferences), June (end of school year, ITE Belgrade, EXIT), September-October (back-to-school, Belgrade Book Fair, Energy Fair), November-December (Black Friday, Božić, end of fiscal year, New Year gifts). For paper, cardboard, business cards we plan 6-8 weeks ahead with stocks in Beograd and Novi Sad warehouses.
Shipping and logistics. Central warehouse in Beograd (Novi Beograd), with dispatch points in Novi Sad, Niš and Kragujevac. Delivery in Serbia via Pošta Srbije (national operator, cheapest), Bex Express (Beograd-Novi Sad-Niš-Kragujevac), Aks Express, City Express, plus DHL Serbia and DPD Serbia for express and EU routes. Standard delivery 24-72h within Serbia, 3-7 working days within EU, 5-10 working days to the region (Crna Gora, BiH, North Macedonia). Recommendations for paper, cardboard, business cards: cardboard box packaging with protective inserts, pallet for series over 100 kg, printed packing list.
Method paper is one of the most frequently used decoration techniques in Serbian B2B merch programs. paper in branded form combines durability, sharpness and logo aesthetics on the product.
For B2B clients in Serbia we offer paper with different materials — textile, plastic, metal, ceramic, glass, leather. paper is used for Pantone and full-colour applications in Serbia, with required calibration per substrate.
Serbian and EU brands in paper apply different quality and price tiers — economy, mid and premium. paper passes AQL control, durability tests (wash at 30°C, 40°C, 60°C), UV resistance (200+ hours).
paper is a standard option for Corp-Merch clients with a focus on long logo lifespan (e.g. 5+ years). In applying paper we work with suppliers certified for OEKO-TEX and eco-passport standards.
paper includes Pantone calibration, deltaE control, physical PPS before launching the run. paper is optimised for Serbian and EU logistics — Beograd warehouse, Pošta Srbije and Bex Express delivery.

paper is chosen when long-lasting marking on textile is needed with 50+ washes at 60°C. paper is ideal for uneven, curved or small surfaces (USB, pens, straps).
paper is used for Pantone colours with ±1 ΔE tolerance on catalog products. paper is the standard for premium gifts — wooden boxes, leather folders, ceramic mugs.
paper is recommended when full-colour is needed on textile without Pantone limits (e.g. photography). paper is optimal for photo-detail, gradients, fine elements (under 2 mm) on white textile.
paper is chosen for ceramic, glass, metal, plastic when relief varnish or white underbase is needed. paper is used for express orders (3-5 working days) with limited colour and option choices.

paper is recommended when full-colour is needed on textile without Pantone limits (e.g. photography).
paper is executed in Pantone C/U class with ±1 ΔE tolerance to G7 or ISO 12647 standard. paper requires minimum prepress: PDF/X-1a file, CMYK or Pantone + Pantone, transparent background for transparents.
paper supports resolution up to 1200 DPI for DTF and 2400 DPI for UV; 200 mesh for screen on textile. paper has minimum line thickness 0.3 mm for screen and 0.5 mm for engraving.
paper is compatible with substrates: cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, recycled fibres, eco-textile. paper can be applied on tiles, USB, straps, acrylic, wood, ceramic, glass, metal, cardboard.
paper for colour print orders uses white UV ink as underbase on dark materials. paper has lifespan 50+ washes at 60°C for embroidery, 30+ washes for screen on textile.

Most common paper mistake — wrong mesh choice for screen-printing (200 mesh for detail, 80-100 mesh for large areas). For paper clients often send RGB files instead of Pantone — the result is wrong colours on delivery.
Without a physical PPS for paper, differences in positioning, colours and detail finesse arise — always require confirmation. paper on dark textile without UV white underbase tends to "disappear" — always require white UV underbase.
For paper do not ignore tolerances (±1-2 mm in positioning, ±0.5 mm in lines). paper on textile with softeners or wash agents can have reduced adhesion — a preliminary test is mandatory.
Wrong drying time estimate for paper (especially UV, plastisol) causes stickiness and damage during packing. For paper wrong adhesive choice for relief varnishes or metallic powder leads to uneven appearance.

The paper process starts with receiving the brief, choosing Pantone colours and substrate material. paper requires digital prepress (PDF/X-1a) with CMYK + Pantone colours and transparent background.
Before launching paper, a physical PPS (pre-production sample) is made — sign-off, then production. paper is printed in certified facilities in Serbia and EU under AQL control standards.
Curing and drying of paper (for screen, UV, DTG) follows a strict temperature-time schedule. paper is packed in protective layers — wax paper, stretch, cardboard box, pallet for larger series.
paper quality control — visual (AQL 1.5), functional (AQL 2.5), wash and UV exposure tests. paper is delivered to the client per the agreed schedule — single package or multi-delivery.
