Kosovo and the Bahamas have signed an agreement on the mutual waiver of visas for their citizens, the Presidency of Kosovo announced on Tuesday.
The visa waiver comes one month after the Bahamas recognized Kosovo’s independence. The Presidency said the visa-free agreement was the next step agreed upon in December by the President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, and the Prime Minister of the Bahamas, Philip Davis, when they signed the agreement establishing relations between the two countries.
“A very good piece of news for all citizens of the Republic of Kosovo!
Today, in Washington, D.C., the agreement on the mutual waiver of visas between Kosovo and the Bahamas was signed by the respective ambassadors. Following recognition by the Bahamas and the establishment of diplomatic relations in December, President Osmani and Prime Minister Davis agreed that this would be the next step. This step demonstrates the shared commitment to strengthening the partnership between Kosovo and the Bahamas and, above all, to strengthening ties between our citizens, bringing them even closer to one another,” the Presidency’s statement said.
