History
Until 18 July 2020, Serpneve belonged to Tarutyne Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Odesa Oblast to seven. The area of Tarutyne Raion was merged into Bolhrad Raion.

Until 26 January 2024, Serpneve was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Serpneve became a rural settlement.

Transportation
Whereas the closest railway station is across the border in Basarabeasca, the closest station in Ukraine is located in Berezyne, approximately 15 km southeast of the settlement. It is a terminal station on a railway line from Artsyz, which, in its turn, is a station on the railway connecting Odesa and Izmail. There is infrequent passenger traffic.

The settlement is connected by road with Artsyz, where there are further connections to Odesa. Other roads cross into Moldova.
