The Ambassador of Serbia to Bulgaria is the official diplomatic representative of the Republic of Serbia to the Republic of Bulgaria. The ambassador leads the Serbian diplomatic mission and is responsible for managing and strengthening the bilateral relations between the two neighbouring countries.

The diplomatic mission was first established in 1879 during the Principality of Serbia period, shortly after Bulgaria gained autonomy from the Ottoman Empire. The role has continued through various political transformations, including the Kingdom of Serbia, the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (later renamed to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia), the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia (later renamed to the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia), the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (later renamed to the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro), and the modern Republic of Serbia.
Diplomatic relations between Serbia and Bulgaria have experienced interruptions and changes reflective of the turbulent history of the Balkans. The initial envoy was appointed soon after Serbia's independence, highlighting early diplomatic engagement. Throughout the 20th century, the post evolved from envoys to fully accredited ambassadors, mirroring the development of modern diplomatic protocols. Notably, during the world wars and periods of political upheaval in both countries, diplomatic representation was limited or suspended.
