Citizens' interest in obtaining documents after the liberalization of visas in Kosovo has increased significantly. Only in the first six months of this year, about 270 thousand citizens have applied to be provided with passports and nearly 130 thousand others with identity cards.

Also, during this period, Serbian citizens have also expressed interest in integrating and providing Kosovo documents.

This is what the director of the Agency for Civil Registration, Blerim Camaj, announced in an interview for KosovaPress, while indicating that the largest flow of citizens with requests for documents was in the months of January, February and March of this year.

Camaj points out that after the liberalization of visas in Kosovo, interest has also been noticed by Serbian citizens in obtaining Kosovo documents.

He emphasizes that about four thousand Serbian citizens have applied for identity cards in the northern municipalities, while over three thousand have been provided with passports.

Among other things, in the interview for KosovaPress, Camaj says that nearly two thousand Serbian citizens have applied for the conversion of their driver's license, since the decision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in May.

He points out that from 2011 to 2020, over 18,000 driver's licenses were converted.

In addition to these, Camaj says that in the first months of this year, due to the large flow of citizens for documents, the process was slower, but he adds that now things have returned to normal.

He mentions that the deadline for equipment with passports and ID cards is about seven working days.
