NUTS statistical regions of Serbia

As a candidate country of the European Union, Serbia (RS) is in the process of being included in the Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS). However, due to the ongoing dispute with Kosovo[lower-alpha 1], it has not yet agreed with the European Commission and Eurostat. The proposed three NUTS levels are:

Level Subdivisions #
NUTS 1 Groups of Regions (Групе региона / Grupe regiona) 2
NUTS 2 Regions (Региони / Regioni) 5
4
(de facto)
NUTS 3 Districts (Окрузи / Okruzi) 29
24
(de facto)
Not to be confused with Statistical regions of Serbia.

Notes and references
  1. The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo is formally recognised as a sovereign state by 101 UN member states (with another 13 states recognising it at some point but then withdrawing their recognition) and 92 states not recognizing it, while Serbia continues to claim it as a part of its own territory.
