Do Ukrainians need a visa to travel to Montenegro?
No, Ukrainians do not need a visa to travel to Montenegro. According to the current legislation, citizens of Ukraine can freely stay in Montenegro for up to 90 days within a 180-day period without the need to obtain a visa. This rule applies to both tourist trips and short-term business visits. It is important to ensure that you do not exceed the permitted period of stay, as this may result in fines or other sanctions upon re-entry.
💡 If you have any problems when entering with invalid or missing documents, you can use the option to apply for temporary protection or asylum (azil) right at the border. In this case, Ukrainian citizens will be allowed to enter with the available documents.
If you are planning to stay in Montenegro because of the war in Ukraine, please read the conditions of temporary protection in a separate section.
What documents do Ukrainians need to enter Montenegro?
