**Its consolidated texts are not official and the governing Act says so.** Article 26 of the Zakon o objavljivanju zakona i drugih propisa i akata provides that the printed gazette and the electronic gazette in PDF are the official editions; the HTML edition is produced but is not named among them. Article 29 describes what the system offers free as 'незванично пречишћени текстови прописа' - unofficially consolidated texts. The pages themselves are headed 'Редакцијски пречишћен текст', an editorially consolidated text, which is a third form of words for the same thing. Cite it for what the law now says and say what it is; for the text as enacted, go to the gazette PDF the page links. **Its consolidations carry no sweep date.** The masthead lists every gazette number incorporated and nothing else, so there is a last amendment incorporated but no statement of a date up to which the text was checked. Do not record a consolidation cut-off from it. **It is unreliable to render and fails silently in two distinguishable ways.** A 73-character reply beginning 'Ne postoji akt sa URI-jem' is the publisher saying the address does not exist. A reply of roughly 1,225, 6,691 or 8,000 characters that begins with the Glasnik contact line or with the gazette navigation is the PIS home page served because the single-page application did not render the document - a failure of our extraction, never an absence of the instrument. Where /reg returns one of those, dropping /reg often renders the same instrument: the Zakon o porezu na dohodak građana at .../zakon/2001/24/1/reg returned the home page on four attempts and .../zakon/2001/24/1 returned 266,652 characters of it. The dated form .../reg/YYYY-MM-DD renders a different and shorter version of the same instrument, so quotations must not be mixed between the two addresses. **Its texts mix scripts.** The statutes are published in Cyrillic, but article 40 of the Zakon o porezu na dohodak građana carries Latin e, o and a glyphs inside Cyrillic words, and article 26 of the Zakon o objavljivanju zakona prints 'РDF' with a Cyrillic Р while article 29 prints 'PDF' with a Latin one. Both are the publisher's own encoding and quotations must reproduce them. **It interleaves furniture with the statute**: 'Мишљења, модели и литература' and 'Судска пракса' are inserted after article headings, so a quotation taken across an article boundary will contain words the legislator never wrote. **Its English service cannot be cited.** propisi.pravno-informacioni-sistem.rs advertises 'More than 200 basic and refined texts of regulations of the Republic of Serbia translated into English' under ISSN 1452-6662, but it is a subscription product and a single-page application: both / and /index returned the same 1,499-character shell, so no English text of any Serbian instrument was readable here.
