Serbia 1919 Revenue Stamps on Sales Document

Serbia · 1919 · 10 Para, 20 Para, 50 Para

This is a sales document from 1919 featuring five Serbian revenue stamps. The stamps, in denominations of 10, 20, and 50 Para, were used to pay taxes or fees on the transaction recorded. Such items are known as 'fiscal documents' and are collected for both their postal history and the revenue stamps affixed.

Following World War I and the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, new fiscal instruments were required. These revenue stamps were part of the new administrative system being established in the post-war period.
