The Serbs in Azerbaijan Azerbaijani: Azərbaycanda Serblər; Serbian: Срби у Азербејџану, romanized: Srbi u Azerbejdžanu) are Azerbaijani citizens of Serbian descent or citizens of Serbia who live and work in Azerbaijan.

History

Serbs moved to Azerbaijan individually, depending on their business engagement. Serbian companies Zlatiborac and Delta Group, dealing in trade, have their representatives and workers. There is also the company Serbaz, owned by Milan and Božo Vučenović, which works at construction sites in Baku and Mingachevir. It employed about 800 construction workers from Serbia and other Balkan countries. Numerous Serbian athletes have lived and worked in Azerbaijan.[2]

In Baku, in early February 2013, the presidents of Serbia and Azerbaijan, Tomislav Nikolić and Ilham Aliyev, unveiled a monument to a Serbian scientist Nikola Tesla.[3]

Demographics

According to the 1989 census, there were 6 Serbs in the then Azerbaijani Soviet Socialist Republic.[1] Today, there are no precise data on how many Serbs live in Azerbaijan.[3]
