I've encountered a surprising number of forms where "Serbia" isn't an option, but Yugoslavia is, even in 2026. There's been a number of times here in the Netherlands where I had to pick Yugoslavia as my place of birth on official government forms because we were technically still Yugoslavia in '98 and not Serbia and Montenegro.
I have no doubts that snail mail addressed to Yugoslavia still exists and probably gets routed just fine
- hugh-avherald 7mo agoIt would be logical if your date of birth changed the available options for country of birth to the set of countries that were contemporaneously recognized.
- sensanaty 7mo agoSure, but my Serbian passport actually says "Place of birth: Republika Srbije" (Republic of Serbia) :p
