Many visitors do not know where and how to make a temporary residence. We will tell you all about it.
This is an article for you if you do not intend to open a permanent residency (privremeni boravak) in Montenegro and get a work permit.
By law, a foreigner has the right to stay in Montenegro for up to 90 days with a short-stay visa if they come from a country where a visa is required.
A tourist arriving in the country must have an identity document. Within 24 hours from the moment of arrival in the country, the foreigner should apply to the local police department (international relations) or to a travel agency.
Present your documents and address of residence (as well as your telephone number of the apartment owners’ number) and pay the tourist tax of about 0.8 euros per day. The registration service itself costs 1 euro.
Usually these institutions work from 8:00 am to 2:30 pm.
If a tourist arrives on a Sunday or a public holiday, they must register on the first working day following the weekend or holidays.
Owners must also have a copy or an original of the “list nepokretnosti” (Real Estate Cadastre).
If a tourist stays in an apartment or a hotel, it is the responsibility of the hotel owner to arrange a Real Estate Cadastre.
They must register a tourist within 12 hours of their arrival. Remind your landlord of this.
In some cities the tourist data is entered directly into the database, but there is no common procedure. In any case, you will need to request a receipt for the tourist fee and keep it until you leave to show it to the border guard if necessary.
