What are the driving laws in Kosovo? 

  • Side of the Road to Drive on: In Kosovo, people drive on the right-hand side of the road. 
  • Seat Belts: Wearing seat belts is mandatory for all passengers in a vehicle in Kosovo, and failure to do so can result in fines. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is wearing their seat belt at all times. 
  • Driving with Children: When driving with children in Kosovo, it is essential to use appropriate child safety seats or booster seats as per the child's age, height, and weight. 
  • Drink Driving: Kosovo has strict regulations regarding alcohol consumption and driving. The legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for drivers is very low, so it is safer to not drink any amount of alcohol if you are planning to drive. 
  • Mobile Phones: Using a mobile phone while driving in Kosovo is prohibited, except for hands-free systems 

What Should I Do If I Have An Accident or Breakdown in Kosovo?

Should you be involved in an accident, you must call the emergency services and the car rental provider immediately. You must not move the car unless it is unsafe to leave it in its present position. Switch on the hazard warning lights. It is recommended you contact us at the same time to ensure you follow the correct procedure.

In the unfortunate event that you breakdown, you must put on the vehicle’s hazard warning lights or place a warning triangle behind your vehicle in to warn other motorists. Contact the provider who will be able to advise you further.
