Diplomatic relations between Serbia and USA were established on October 14, 1881. This extremely important diplomatic jubilee is being marked with the issue of the commemorative postage stamps ”140th Anniversary of the Serbian–American Diplomatic Relations”, that shows a rich diplomatic heritage that connects the two countries. In historical terms, these relations are characterized by an alliance in the two world wars and cultural, scientific and economic collaboration was marked by great persons such as Mihajlo Pupin and Nikola Tesla. After the period of descends and ascends at the end of the twentieth century, diplomatic relations between Serbia and USA are on the continuous rise.

Today bilateral relations between two countries are improved and significantly better than in previous years, and with the issue of the commemorative postage stamps ”140th Anniversary of the Serbian–American Diplomatic Relations”, we are contributing not only to preserving the memory of the rich history of these relations, but also to their further improvement.
