Why Serbia

Same hours, short flights.

A 9-to-5 working day in each city, shown in CET
  • Kvant Studio · Serbia
  • Berlin · Paris · AmsterdamSame time · 8 h overlap
  • London · Dublin · Lisbon1 hour behind · 7 h overlap
  • New York · Toronto6 hours behind · 2 h overlap

Outsourcing web development to Eastern Europe should not mean late-night calls. Nearshore, or nearshoring, means working with a team in or near your own time zone, instead of one six to ten hours away. Serbia runs on Central European Time, so your working day is our working day: questions, reviews and calls happen in shared hours, not in overnight hand-offs.

Kvant Studio is run by Jovan and Branko Milivojević, two architects who build websites, backed by CAD ART, our family's architecture practice. You talk directly to the two people who design and build your site, in English, by email, video call or WhatsApp. We answer your questions personally.

Every project starts with a proposal: the scope, deliverables, price and launch date, agreed before we start and invoiced in EUR. For the agreed scope the price is fixed, and anything new is agreed in writing first.

US teams: for you we are offshore rather than nearshore. New York is six hours behind, so our afternoon overlaps your morning, from 9 to 11 a.m. Eastern. Reviews happen on a preview link you can open at any hour, and calls go into that overlap.

  • About two hours away

    Direct flights from Belgrade reach Berlin, Munich, Vienna and Zurich in about two hours or less, and London in about three. A kickoff meeting in person fits into a single working day. Serbia changes to summer time on the same dates as the EU and UK.

Outcomes

Close collaboration. Clear terms.

Working across a border only pays off if speed, quality and ownership hold up. These three do, in writing.

Speed

95+ on mobile, guaranteed

Everything we code in Next.js is written by hand and handed over with Lighthouse mobile Performance 95+, or we fix it for free.

Leads

Built for every market you sell in

Localized URLs, hreflang and schema for each language, so buyers in Germany, the UK or the US land on the version meant for them.

Ownership

Your domain, code and content

The domain is registered in your name, and the code, design and content transfer to you after the final payment. No lock-in and no retainer required.

Who you work with

Two architects, one direct line.

Kvant Studio is run by two brothers, Jovan and Branko Milivojević: architects by training, programmers by passion. You work with us directly, from the first call to launch.

Both of us design and code the sites. Jovan has run his own business for 15 years and built our family practice's sites, projektikuce.rs and moravamodern.com, in Next.js. Branko also creates 3D visualization, imagery and 360° tours. Behind us is CAD ART, the architecture practice our father Boban founded, with more than 33 years of work across Serbia.

We work in English, on CET. Email, WhatsApp or a phone call all reach one of us.

Contracts and invoicing

Clear terms, in writing.

Short contracts in English. Your contracting party is Jovan Milivojević PR Arhitektonski biro CadArt Paraćin, a registered Serbian business (tax ID 110627690); Kvant Studio is its trade name.
  • Proposal and payment

    • A proposal with the scope, deliverables, price and launch date, before we start.
    • An advance payment against a pro-forma invoice starts the work; the balance is due when you approve the site, before launch.
    • Invoices in EUR, paid by bank transfer.
    • We charge no VAT on our invoices. Businesses in the EU account for it under the reverse charge.
  • Guarantees

    • Lighthouse mobile Performance 95+ at handover for everything we code in Next.js, or we fix it for free.
    • The launch date is in the contract, and so is how much less you pay if the delay is on us.
    • For 30 days after launch we fix bugs for free.
    • You approve the design. Your proposal sets the number of revision rounds; extra changes and their price are agreed in writing first.
    • The total in your proposal covers the whole agreed scope.
    • The domain is registered in your name from day one. After the final payment, the code, design files and content belong to you. You choose who you work with next.

VAT, Impressum and data rules for each country, with sources, are in our guide to outsourcing web development to Serbia.

Project

Built in Serbia for an international market.

Morava Modern is our family practice's English-language catalog of modern house plans for buyers abroad. The whole product, from plan pages to 360° interior tours, was designed and built by our team in Serbia.

Pricing

One proposal, in EUR.

The price follows the scope of your project. After a short exchange you get a proposal with the exact scope, price and timeline, before we start, and for the agreed scope the price is fixed.

What shapes the scope and price

  • pages, templates and the content behind them
  • languages and markets, each with its own URLs
  • who writes the copy, and in which languages
  • integrations: forms, booking, payments or a CRM
  • your current site and the URLs worth keeping
  • maintenance after launch, if you want it

How quotes work

  1. 1You send a few sentences about your business and what you need.
  2. 2We clarify the details, in writing or on a short call.
  3. 3You get a proposal with the exact scope, price and timeline.

The Kvant Partner approach

One team, from plan to launch.

We plan the site with you, build it and connect it to tools for inquiries, bookings or sales. After handover, you choose: run it yourself, with us or with someone else. The code is yours, and you have access to the accounts.

FAQ

Nearshore, answered.

What does nearshore mean?

Working with a team in a nearby country, in the same or a close time zone. For Berlin, Vienna, Zurich or Amsterdam, Serbia is on the same CET/CEST clock; London is one hour behind.

Nearshore vs offshore: what's the difference?

Offshore teams are usually several time zones away, for example in India, 3.5 to 4.5 hours ahead of CET, so there is less shared working time. Nearshore means the same hours and a short flight. For the EU and the UK we are nearshore. For the US we are offshore, with a two-hour overlap each morning (9 to 11 a.m. Eastern).

What time zone is Serbia in?

Central European Time (UTC+1), with summer time on the same Sundays as the EU. That is the same clock as Berlin, Vienna and Amsterdam, one hour ahead of London and six hours ahead of New York.

Is Serbia in the EU? What does that mean for contracts?

Serbia is an EU candidate country, not a member. You sign a contract with Jovan Milivojević PR Arhitektonski biro CadArt Paraćin, a registered Serbian business trading as Kvant Studio, and receive invoices in EUR. We charge no VAT on our invoices. Businesses in the EU account for it under the reverse charge.

Which language do we work in?

English, in writing and on calls. We also work in Serbian and Croatian, and build sites in those three languages and in German and Dutch. Run a business in Austria, Germany or Switzerland and prefer Serbian or Croatian? See our page in Serbian or in Croatian.

Can we meet in person?

Yes, by arrangement. We are based in central Serbia, about two hours by motorway from Belgrade airport. Most projects run on email and video calls, but a kickoff workshop in your office is easy to plan: Belgrade has direct flights to most major Western European cities.

How do payments work?

As set in the proposal: an advance payment against a pro-forma invoice starts the work, and the balance is due when you approve the site, before launch. Invoices are in EUR, paid by bank transfer.

What if you miss the launch date?

The launch date is in the contract, and so is how much less you pay if the delay is on us.

What do we need to check on contracts, VAT and data?

Three things: reverse-charge VAT on our EUR invoice, how your transfer reaches our bank, and a data processing agreement if we handle personal data you control. Each one is explained, with sources, in our guide to outsourcing web development to Serbia.

Can you build our site in German or Dutch?

Yes. We build German and Dutch versions with localized URLs, hreflang and schema for each language, and we write the copy too, in every language the proposal covers. You review and approve every page before it goes live. Legal pages such as the Impressum use text from a generator or your lawyer, and we build them in as real pages.

Can you invoice in CHF, GBP or USD?

Our proposals and invoices are in EUR. If you pay from a CHF, GBP or USD account, your bank converts the amount.

Why hire a studio in Serbia instead of a local agency?

Shared working hours, and you work directly with the two architects who design and code your site. You get a proposal with the scope, price and launch date before we start, Lighthouse mobile 95+ at handover for everything we code in Next.js, the domain in your name from day one and the code yours after the final payment. Whoever you compare us with, ask for the same in writing: the scope, the launch date and the performance target.
