Rules in force · 5The fortress paths and the streets down to the rivers are…
- Serbia ↗Serbia is outside the EU and Schengen area and sets its own entry rules; check the official requirements for your passport.
- Serbia ↗Foreign visitors must be registered with the police after arrival; hotels do it, but in private rentals ask your host to confirm.
- Serbia ↗Serbia does not accept entry into Kosovo from a third country as entry into Serbia. If you plan to cross between Kosovo and Serbia, check your government's advice for both before you book.
- Belgrade ↗The fortress paths and the streets down to the rivers are steep and rough: large suitcases go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
- Belgrade ↗Use a ride-hailing app or a taxi ordered by phone; unbooked airport and station taxis overcharge.
