Order of Yugoslavia

Order of Yugoslavia (Serbian: Орден Југославије, romanized: Orden Jugoslavije) was the highest national order of merit awarded in Serbia and Montenegro (known as the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia until 2003) between 1998 and the dissolution of the Union in 2006. It was intended to be awarded to heads of states and governments, in two variants: on grand collar or on sash.

According to the Law on decorations of 3 December 1998, the Order of Yugoslavia on grand collar was to be automatically awarded to the President of FR Yugoslavia upon their inauguration. Only one insignia of this order (on grand collar) was ever produced, for then incumbent president Slobodan Milošević. His successor, Vojislav Koštunica, declined the order after he was inaugurated. No other person was ever awarded this order.
