How to pay for utilities in Montenegro: a step-by-step guide

Utility bills in Montenegro are an integral part of the maintenance of any real estate. Regardless of whether you own apartments on the coast, villas in the mountains, or rent accommodation to tourists, regular bill payments ensure the smooth operation of all systems: electricity, water, Internet, garbage collection, and property taxes. In this article, we will explain how the process of paying for utilities goes, and offer a convenient solution for those who prefer to delegate this task to specialists.

Which services are subject to payment

Property owners in Montenegro, as a rule, pay for the following types of services on a monthly basis:

  • Electric power (CEDIS, EPCG)
  • Water supply (Vodovod)
  • Garbage collection (Komunalno)
  • Internet and television (Telenor, Mtel, Crnogorski Telekom, etc.)
  • Maintenance of buildings and surrounding areas (if applicable)
  • Property tax (paid annually)

Electricity and water bills are most often sent by mail or electronically. To pay for them, you will need a personal account number or a facility code.

Payment methods for utilities

There are several ways to pay for communal services in Montenegro:

  1. ** Through the bank**
    Payment is made at any branch of the local bank. It is enough to present an invoice and an identity card. A minimum commission is charged for the transfer.
  2. Through online banking
    If you have an account with a Montenegrin bank, you can connect the mobile application and pay all bills online. This is convenient for permanent residents and those who live in the country most of the year.
  3. At the post office (Pošta Crne Gore)
    The state post office accepts payment for most utilities. This is a reliable and affordable way, especially in small towns.
  4. Through payment terminals
    There are vending machines in the cities where you can make payments in cash or by card. The terminal menu has been translated into English, which makes it easier for foreigners to use.
