    Do we need separate visas for Croatia Bosnia and Montenegro? Does a Schengen visa allow entry?

      Traveler•Written December 2022

      I'm not a USA passport holder. I am a Sri Lankan but have a multiple entry Schengen visa. Will this be enough to enter all 3 countries?

    • TrafalgarOperator•Written December 2022

      Please refer to this link, visacentral.com, or go to your nearest embassy for more information and assistance, as not all European countries qualify for the Schengen visa.
