The European Parliament has approved visa-free travel for nationals of Kosovo.
Key Points:
Background: The European Parliament has supported visa liberalization with Kosovo since 2016, after the Commission declared that Kosovo fulfills the criteria of its roadmap for visa liberalization. Kosovo is currently the only part of the Western Balkans region to not enjoy visa-free travel on short stays within the Schengen area.
BAL Analysis: Travelers are reminded that the visa waiver is appropriate for business, family and tourist purposes; those conducting work activities must obtain an appropriate work permit.
