State Department: Serbia-Montenegro - Consular Information Sheet, April 12, 1999
Serbia-Montenegro - Consular Information Sheet
April 12, 1999
TRAVEL WARNING: The Department of State warns
U.S. citizens against travel to Serbia-Montenegro and strongly urges
U.S. citizens in Serbia-Montenegro to depart the country without delay due
to military operations being conducted by members of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO). The U.S. Embassy suspended operations and all
official Americans departed Serbia-Montenegro as of March 23. There is no
U.S. diplomatic presence in Serbia-Montenegro to provide normal consular
protective services there to U.S. citizens. Given recent history in the
region, the possibility exists that U.S. citizens could be singled out in
sporadic acts of violence, even though the government of Serbia-Montenegro
has offered assurances no retaliatory actions would be taken against
U.S. citizens.
EMBASSY LOCATION/REGISTRATION: The U.S. Embassy
suspended operations and all official Americans departed Serbia-Montenegro
as of March 23. The U.S. government is not able to provide consular
services, such as registration, to U.S. citizens in Serbia-Montenegro.
As there is no diplomatic presence in Serbia-Montenegro, the Department
is unable to provide information on current conditions in
Serbia-Montenegro.
This replaces the August 26, 1998 Consular
Information Sheet to add the Travel Warning for Serbia-Montenegro and
to note the suspension of Embassy operations in Serbia-Montenegro.
