What documents needed to obtain a residency in Montenegro

All

Documents

All documents need to be translated into Montenegrin. The
immigration agent will take care of this. The whole process can
take 45 days. It’s quite a bureaucratic process. Also, within 24
hours of your arrival in Montenegro you need to register your
arrival with the local police branch or with the closest tourist
office. You will need to be registered there to receive the
permit.

Can obtaining residency in Montenegro lead to citizenship?

Yes .....

To qualify

You must reside in Montenegro for 5 years under temporary residency. The government requires you to stay at least 9 months per year to renew your residency annually. Failing to meet this minimum stay means you’ll need to reapply for temporary residency, restarting the 5-year countdown.
Renewing residency, however, is significantly easier from a bureaucratic perspective.
After 5 years of maintaining temporary residency, you can apply for permanent residency.
5 years later (year 10), you can apply for Montenegrin citizenship.
