AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Schengen Visa Tightening: The European Commission says it will propose targeted, stricter Schengen visa rules for Russian citizens next year, after a letter from 11 countries including Latvia pushed back against “fragmentation” and the continued flow of Russian tourists to EU resorts. EU Tourism Snapshot: Eurostat reports EU overnight stays in tourist accommodation rose 3.4% in Q1 2026 to 471.1 million, with foreign visitors at 46.6% of nights. Riga Travel Pressure: Riga Airport’s passenger growth plans are facing serious challenges as new commercial partners are selected to boost the passenger experience and retail offering. Latvia Beach Safety: No swimming is allowed at Kolka after faecal contamination was detected; other official bathing sites remain open. On-the-Road Leisure: Latvia’s boating season is in full swing, with the Abava River drawing visitors—though drought has lowered water levels and changed the feel of the trip. Local Culture: Saulkrasti Jazz Festival (15–18 July) returns with a rhythm-focused programme and Baltic Drummers League competition.
