  1. The only thing you have to do is register yourself upon arrival. If you are staying in a hotel, they do it for you. So, no worries.
    (The Swiss, 6 November 2009 12:15)

    Actually, they are not very strict with the registration either.
    Some people do, some not.

    Besides... with whom you register if you stay at Prohor Pčinjski? Or at Gračanica? With Igumen or Igumenia?

    The "registration" is a custom all over ex-YU. It has two purposes:

    a) The usual communist habit, still alive. The Big Drug / Big Tovarishch wants to know, who you are, or more importantly, with WHOM you are.

    b) Just in case, Big Drug wants to know, the guy with whom you are does pay the "Boravishta Taxa" after you - if he receives guests on commercial basis.

    I am just curious that in Central Serbia if I see on the road side sign "Sobe"/"Zimmer": do these guys pay the room tax or not ;-)

  2. "...You dont know where I come from and you talk about the development of my society. Childish.

    You talk about the civilised development while on the other article you defend Karadzic, world war criminal.

    Now judge for yoursef where you belong.
    (Olf, 6 November 2009 12:31)..."


    >>> Well following your devoted agenda, followed again in your comments, you can be only either Albanian or Kosovo Albanian or Serbian Albanian or Macedonian Albanian or Greek Albanian or Albanian legal or very possibly illegal emigrant? I go for the one of first two options.

    Rite?

    Anyhow and now, back to the subject of the article with some other of your nasty remarks on otherwise positive and "politically neutral" article and news?

  3. You dont know where I come from and you talk about the development of my society. Childish.
    (Olf, 6 November 2009 12:31)

    So where do you come from mate? Spill it out! People think that you are Albanian.
    (Karamustafa, 6 November 2009 17:45)
  4. You really wish the very best to the fellow humans on the Earth, isn't it?
    Very clear and indications for the level of civilized development in your society.
    (dean van der serbia, 5 November 2009 19:10)

    You dont know where I come from and you talk about the development of my society. Childish.

  5. It depends from where you are from. I have been travelling in and out of Serbia for the last 5 years and never had to have any kind of visa.
    The only thing you have to do is register yourself upon arrival. If you are staying in a hotel, they do it for you. So, no worries.
    (The Swiss, 6 November 2009 12:15)
  6. Does this mean that citizens that don't need a visa to enter the Schengen area can also enter Serbia without a visa? I'm going to belgrade precisely in december, and while i don't need a visa to enter the schengen countries, i do need a tourist visa for serbia, and to make matters worst, there isn't a serbian embassy in my country so i have to send my passport via mail to the neareast serbian embassy. I'm in the process of doing all of that, and i'll probably won't risk not being allowed to enter, so i'll do it anyway, but i really do wish this was true, since it hasn't been neither easy nor cheap to visit serbia.
    (Lechuck, 6 November 2009 04:13)
  7. Of course rich and intelligent Serbians will flood abroad to the West and all be given jobs ahead of the locals who remain unemployed in their millions. There are just enormous numbers of jobs to hand out!

    Rich people play by different rules and this visa issue was never a problem for them in the first place. Capitalism for the poor, Socialism for the rich!
    (Aleks, 6 November 2009 03:03)
  8. It is a good news for this countries and hopefully very soon Albania,Kosova and Bosnia will be in a same position!

    It will be great for tourism,people will go for fun to Paris,Rome,etc,
    what's worries me the most is that a lot of people will try to find a better place to live in Europe and guys, believe me the Europe is not how it was,it is work work work!!!

    I congratulate our three neighbours and hoping that Albania,Kosova and Bosnia will be in the same boat in the near future,
    after all we are Europeans,even though some in here think otherwise!

    From a beautiful London:
    Gezuar and Ziveli!!!

  9. Congratulation, bravo, long overdue!
    Sorry k-olfy you'll have to get use to this kind of hangover, this is only the 1st one of a long serie :)

    But if you have a valid passport with a valid visa, my invitation to check some facts in my country remains open....
    (The Swiss, 5 November 2009 21:15)
  10. This is brilliant news. Now Serbs do not have to feel like criminals standing out side embassy's in the cold and rain begging some fat official for permission to visit a sick relative.
    Let the fun begin.
    (Gino, 5 November 2009 21:02)
  11. I am afraid that another wave of Serbian intelectuals will leave Serbia for good.
    (Olf, 5 November 2009 17:59)

    Thank you for your "concern," Mr. Albanian Olf who attends slavas... We can take care of ourselves though.
    (Ace, 5 November 2009 20:58)
  12. After the EU cancels the need for a visa, Serbian citizens will need a passport to travel to EU Member States. Serbian citizens cannot use their identity card to enter EU Member States. Also, Serbian citizens will not be allowed to work and settle in EU Member States.

    Romanian citizens only need their identity card to enter other EU Member States. In 2011 the identity card will no longer be needed since Romania will join the Schengen Area.

    Also, Romanian citizens have the right to settle everywhere in the EU. Romanian citizens have the right to work in most EU Member States.

    This is the difference between being an EU Member State and being outside the EU.
    (Mircea, 5 November 2009 20:57)
  13. Olf, I appreciate your concern about serbs leaving Serbia, but it won't happen more next year than last year.
    Because you see, visa free travel doesn't make people emigrate, it just makes them not having to pay 50 euros for a tourist visa.
    A family with two kids save some 200 euros on a typical Greece vacation because of this. Not small money for average Serbian citizens.

    I predict that next years tourist season in Greece will se a tremendously increasing number of Serbian tourists. I also belive that Montenegro will have an even less number than this catastrophical summer...

    So thanks for your worries, but it will only help average serbian people in Serbia and RS to save money while traveling. I belive that many weekend trips will be done to Italy and Austria as a consequence of this.
    (Srboslav, 5 November 2009 19:44)
  14. I am sure the kosovo albanians will be screaming foul because it does not apply to them or those kosovo passports.
    (brokeback mountain, 5 November 2009 19:39)
  15. "...Good news for wealthy Serbian people and Slovenian economy.
    I am afraid that another wave of Serbian intelectuals will leave Serbia for good.
    (Olf, 5 November 2009 17:59) ..."

    >>> Olfy the Boy and Kosovo Albanian?

    You really wish the very best to the fellow humans on the Earth, isn't it?
    Very clear and indications for the level of civilized development in your society.
    (dean van der serbia, 5 November 2009 19:10)
  16. oh, all you selfproclaimed "europeans", don´t you ever think that this will change our position on our southern province!

    ...because, it won´t!
    (Jovan, 5 November 2009 18:01)
