Minister of Foreign Affairs, Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett and Luis Almagro Lemes, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, has signed an agreement that will see the visas being abolished for citizens
traveling between the two countries.
According to a statement of the Foreign Ministry, the Framework Agreement would allow for the consolidating and promotion of cooperative relations between the two countries in areas of common interest, including economic, commercial, financial, industrial, agricultural, scientific, technical and cultural fields.
“The Visa Abolition Agreement, which comes into effect 60 days after its signature, would allow citizens from both countries to enter each other’s territory for a period of 90 days without requiring a visa,” the Ministry explained.
Government said that it has been actively pursuing the strengthening of relations with countries of the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR) especially since the Constitutive Treaty was signed in 2008.
“The two agreements bode well for further integration of which the ability of citizens to move among the different countries of the continent without the hassle of visa restrictions is fundamental.”
The agreements were signed Thursday during the 26th Inter-Sessional Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community which is being held in the Bahamas.
Guyana’s delegation was headed by the Minister.
