Why this verdict

Algerian citizens are mapped from Kosovo MFAD's country table as visa-required for ordinary-passport short visits or transit. This guidance is intentionally conservative: residence permits, special travel documents, diplomatic/service passports, work, study, airline routing, border checks and transit control can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking.
