The Kosovo government has approved an agreement to subsidize the cost of the border police, commonly referred to as the “Green Card,” for citizens visiting Kosovo during the summer season. Acting Minister of Finance, Hekuran Murati, confirmed that the administration will continue to support the diaspora through this subsidy. According to Telegrafi, Murati announced that starting in April, funds will be allocated to cover the border police fees for those staying in Kosovo during this period.
He specified that this proposal involves a budgetary allocation of three million euros for the implementation of measure 4.5, titled “Support for the Diaspora,” sourced from the “Peace for Economic Revival” initiative. This measure represents a continued effort by the government to facilitate the return and temporary stay of citizens from the diaspora. The subsidy addresses the expense associated with the border police documentation, making it more accessible for visitors coming to Kosovo during the warmer months.
The approval solidifies the financial support mechanism for border entry procedures. By allocating these funds, the government aims to encourage seasonal tourism and maintain the support structure for diaspora members utilizing the border crossings. This budgetary action is framed as a key component of broader economic revival plans for the region.
