Visa required in advance
Every other passport
How to get it: Foreign visitors must be registered with the police within 24 hours of arrival. A hotel or a licensed rental does this for you — confirm that yours will, because doing it yourself means a queue at a police station.
Entry rules change often and depend on your passport, your route and the purpose of the trip. Confirm on the official page before booking.

UlcinjMontenegroThe far south: a pirate old town on a rock, a twelve-kilometre beach of grey sand, kitesurfing, and a town that is more Albanian than Montenegrin
