Serbia has a significant number of diplomatic missions abroad, representing its growing ties with the West along with Yugoslavia's historical ties with eastern Europe and the Non-Aligned Movement.
From the 1960s to the 1980s several embassies and consulates of Yugoslavia were targeted by émigré Croats. Attacks took place against Yugoslav missions in Germany, Sweden, Australia and the United States, with several fatalities ensuing, including the Consul in Stuttgart (in 1966) and the Ambassador to Sweden (in 1972).
Serbia inherited about a third of the diplomatic facilities that belonged to the former Yugoslavia. After 2001 embassies in Chile, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ghana, Guinea, Lebanon, Mongolia, North Korea, Pakistan, Thailand, Venezuela, Vietnam and Zimbabwe were closed due to financial or reciprocal reasons. In June 2008 the Government of Serbia made a decision to close consulates in Bari, Graz and Malmö [ [http://www.rtv.co.yu/sr/vesti/dijaspora/2008_06_16/vest_68228.jsp Vlada zatvara konzulate u Gracu i Malmeu] ] , and later that year Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremić announced a plan to open a consulate-general in Knin (Croatia) [ [http://www.studio-b.co.yu/info/vest.php?id=24338 Srbija otvara konzulat u Kninu] ] during the autumn and an embassy in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia).

On November 30, 2006, the Government of Serbia adopted the "Memorandum of Agreement between the Republic of Montenegro and the Republic of Serbia on Consular Protection and Services to the Citizens of Montenegro". By this agreement, Serbian diplomatic missions provide consular services to the Montenegrin citizens on the territory of states in which Montenegro has no missions of its own.
