Rome - December 14, 2010 - Starting tomorrow, December 15, citizens of Albania and Bosnia and Herzegovina will no longer need a visa to enter Italy and other countries of the Schengen area. It provides for a regulation published today in the Official Gazette of the European Union.
The liberalization affects only a short stay, maximum of ninety days, not dictated by business reasons. It is also essential that those who enter without a passport has seen the latest generation, with a microchip that along with other data stores a copy of fingerprints.
The European Commission will monitor the new arrivals: if they are too many and will be complemented with unfounded asylum applications will be temporarily re-introduced visas.
The liberalization of visas is another step closer to Albania and Bosnia to the European Union, and was decided after the two countries have tightened controls on their borders, have contrasted more strongly organized crime and corruption and have passports more secure. The same benefit has been recognized in 2009 the citizens of Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia.
