The President of Serbia and Montenegro (Serbian: Predsednik Srbije i Crne Gore) was the head of state of Serbia and Montenegro. From its establishment in 1992 until 2003, when the country was reconstituted as a confederacy (state union) via constitutional reform, the head of state was known as the President of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbian: Predsednik Savezne Republike Jugoslavije). With the constitutional reforms of 2003 and the merging of the offices of head of government and head of state, the full title of the president was President of Serbia and Montenegro and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Serbia and Montenegro (Serbian: Predsednik Srbije i Crne Gore i Predsednik Saveta ministara Srbije i Crne Gore). In 2006 the office was abolished as the state union was dissolved, with Serbia and Montenegro becoming independent countries.
