Summary/Abstract: After the European Commission published its latest Serbia Report, the Serbian visa policy issue came up high on EU and Serbian officials’ as well as local public’s list of priorities. Serbia was requested to align its visa policy as soon as possible and to cancel the visa-free regime especially for the nationals of Burundi, Tunisia, Cuba and India. The key reasons provided for such a decision are Frontex statistics indicating that the Western Balkan Route has remained the most active migration route for illegal border crossings into EU in 2022. Additional arguments provided are the statistics indicating an increase in the number of asylum applications lodged by nationals of these countries in EU Member States.
