Limits of the record
  • This detail is not established in the evidence recorded here. Confirm the applicable requirement with the responsible authority.

What circumstance, event, relationship, nomination, invitation or status activates access?

Access is triggered by the existence of a specific law or international treaty covering the person's situation, which is what activates this catch-all basis rather than one of the law's other, purpose-specific grounds.

See recorded sources

What sponsor, authority, nomination, certification, evidence or other step must occur before the status can be obtained?

The relevant international treaty or law itself must regulate the person's status; the official source does not add a further prior-authorisation or certification step of its own beyond that.

Limits of the record
  • No additional prior-action or certification step specific to this basis is stated beyond the treaty/law itself governing the matter.

What immigration status and rights result, how long do they last, can family be included, and what happens if the special qualifying circumstance ends?

The result is a temporary residence permit; the holder may stay in Montenegro in line with the purpose for which temporary residence was granted. A temporary residence permit is issued for up to one year, and can be extended only on the same legal basis on which it was granted. The official source does not state whether family members can be included or what happens when the qualifying circumstance ends.
