He graduated at the Faculty of Orthodox Theology at the University of Belgrade and obtained his PhD in Catholic theology from the University of Tübingen in Germany.

Latinovic teaches Dogmatics, Ecumenism, and Orthodox theology at the Ecumenical Institute in Tübingen. To date, he has published eleven books and organized numerous international conferences. He also serves on the board of the International Research Network Ecclesiological Investigations (EIIRN) and co-chairs the Orthodox Eastern Catholic Dialogue Group (OECD).
