Srbijavoz (; Anglicized: Serbiatrain) is the national passenger railway company of Serbia. Srbijavoz is an associate member of the International Union of Railways (UIC) since 2016.

History In March 2015, the Government of Serbia announced its plan to establish three new railway companies by splitting the state-owned company Serbian Railways into separate businesses – Srbijavoz (passenger services), Srbija Kargo (freight transport) and Serbian Railways Infrastructure (infrastructure management). Srbijavoz was founded on 10 August 2015.

In February 2019, Srbijavoz temporarily suspended service on the Belgrade–Novi Sad railway, the country's busiest passenger route, due to the line's reconstruction. The line reopened in March 2022 after modernization with the launch of the high-speed "SOKO" service connecting the two most populated Serbian cities in 36 minutes, with trains reaching speeds of up to 200 km/h. The route is 75 km long and it is being extended to cover the segment of railway line between Novi Sad and Subotica (near the border with Hungary), to enable speeds of up to 200 km/h as part of the modernization of the Belgrade-Budapest railway line. Extension of services to Subotica started in October 2025.

Reconstruction and modernization is also planned for the railway line between Belgrade and Niš to enable trains to reach the speeds of up to 200 km/h, between Niš and Preševo (border with North Macedonia) for the speed of 160 km/h and between Niš and Dimitrovgrad for the speed of 120 km/h (border with Bulgaria).

Passenger transport Srbijavoz inherited the passenger transport operations of Serbian Railways after its founding. Since 2015, it operates train services across the country, including international routes to neighbouring countries and domestic routes (fast, regional and local lines).
