The worlds population is going to face with many challenges in order to keep steady balance between growing population and food production in next few decades. Present meat production is dependant on protein sources whose price are continually increasing. In order to decrease dependency of animal production on conventional feeds, there is a strict need for pronouncement of novel foods. Farmed insects have emerged as a excellent candidate as they are easy to breed, do not require a lot of space, and their ecological footprint is low. Taking everything into account, Serbia has the certain potential for developing in this novel farming, as it has many researchers whose work is related to insect biology, animal production and sufficient production of many food substrates which can be used for insect production. Serbia is making significant advance to becoming one of the EU countries so it needs to harmonize its legislation to the one in force in the Union. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to provide a review of the existing legislation in the European Union and research papers, making a proposal for future Serbian regulation, concerning the functioning, establishment, and management of insects production facilities.
