Montenegrin police administrative and compensation issues

Overview

In early September 2026, Montenegrin police officers involved in securing the EU and Western Balkans Summit in Tivat received daily allowances and overtime pay, though variable bonuses remained unpaid. While the Ministry of Internal Affairs indicated that variable compensation would be processed following specific procedures, officials expressed varying stances on increasing wages for the approximately 2,000 officers deployed for the event.

By mid-September, the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported that 165 police officers failed to meet the July 31 deadline for reporting assets and income. Under the Law on Internal Affairs, these officers face potential disciplinary responsibility as the Anti-Corruption Department analyzes the data. These reporting regulations, which took effect in June 2024, require officers to disclose annual assets and income for themselves and their family members.
