(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAR 9 - Today, the European Council adopted in first reading its position on visa-free travel for Kosovo passport holders, according to a statement released by the Council. The new regulations will permit Kosovo passport holders to travel to the EU visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. This exemption from the visa requirement will take effect upon the implementation of the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) or January 1, 2024, whichever occurs first.

Before they can be signed and published in the EU's official journal, the new rules must be approved by the European Parliament. (ANSA).
