Greek Authorities Prevent Albanians with Incomplete Documentation to Cross Border

Greek customs officers are preventing Albanian citizens with incomplete documentation to cross the country’s border.  This follows the decision to abolish Schengen visas, which came into force on December 15th.
At the Kakavije border crossing, in the last 24 hours, 27 of 340 Albanian citizens traveling to Greece were prevented from entering the country, the ATA Agency reported.
Ever since the no-visa regime has been introduced, more than 100 Albanians were returned from the border. Albanian Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities pointed out that they are in contact with Greek authorities, and that they hope the misunderstandings will soon be off the agenda.
Despite the widespread informative campaign regarding the abolition of visas, Albanian citizens are being returned from the border because of the lack of necessary documents or the certain amount of money. Sometimes, they are asked to provide confirmation that their Greek host has no criminal record.
