ABSTRACT Dynamic development of tourism legislation in the last half a century is in direct correlation with the increased tourist activity and emergence of the mass tourism. That eventually led to the formation of Tourism Law, as a separate branch of law, which regulates legal status of tourism and hospitality operators (service providers) and legal relations they are entering into mutually, with third persons and with tourism and hospitality service users. Tourism Law contains specific private and public norms that are still in statu nascendi. These specific rules have been formed gradually over the period, from the ancient to a modern time. The aim of the paper is to provide a chronological overview of the development of tourism and hospitality rules in Serbia, followed by the hierarchical overview and legal analyses of the current legal framework related to Tourism Law.
