I would like to bring some news on law in Montenegro considering rights on immobilities.

As you may know, Immobility Direction of Montenegro have brought regulation in July 2007 which says that by current low foreigners are not allowed to register land in Montenegro as natural(psychical) persons,Not even one square meter. Land can be registered only through legal entity registered in Montenegro.

But now, with new law in procedure foreigners will have same right as natural domestic people considering immobility and mobility. Law is to be accepted by the middle of December.
