Martinovic briefed the representatives of the International Union of Notaries on the Law on Public Notaries in force in the Republic of Serbia since November 2014. He said that Serbia had public notaries before WWII, a period which was followed by a several decades long break so the experience of the countries the representatives of the International Union of Notaries come from would be invaluable for Serbia.

Michel Merlotti, President of the International Notarial Cooperation Commission of the International Union of Notaries, said that the Serbian Law on Public Notaries is quite good and that he fully expected Serbia to become a member of the International Union of Notaries since the flaws of said Law are negligible.

Merlotti informed Committee Chairman Dr Aleksandar Martinovic and Committee member Dragan Nikolic about the structure and modus operandi of the International Union of Notaries hoping that Serbia would join it.

The meeting was attended by Goran Andric, member of the Executive Board of the Serbian Chamber of Public Notaries, Hans-Jakob Putzer, Commission Vice-President, delegate for South East Europe, Didier Nourissat, Commission Vice-President, delegate for Europe, and Magdalena Valuchova, Commission member.
