In detail, 50.9 percent of respondents have EU travel experiences, while for others, this would be the first time.

Among the respondents who have confirmed their move to the EU, most have monthly income between $ 500 and $ 1,000, with 15 percent of all respondents making a lot of money in a month. Moreover, the percentage of respondents planning to leave Kosovo after visa liberalisation and generate less than 300 euros a month, as well as those who reach between 300 and 500 euros a month, is 18.4 per cent, showing that the lower level of monthly income they are, the higher the number of people who want to leave.

This claim is further supported because only 2.6 percent of all respondents plan to travel to the EU and earn about 1,000 euros a month, considered above the average wage in Kosovo.

Most respondents were women (61.4 percent), and their status was mostly employed, as 88.5 percent claimed, while 59.6 percent of respondents had higher or higher education.

Moreover, the most common profession is IT, Technology, and Communication Media, with 46.5 percent of respondents with such a profession.

Asked what are the most important reasons not to leave Kosovo, 57 percent of respondents have mentioned the names of their families, followed by friends (27.2 percent), and 17.5 percent have mentioned patriotism's motives.

As for those planning to leave the country, the main impetus for such claims is to employment (74.5 percent) and tourism (53.2 percent). Germany, Switzerland, and France are the top destinations for respondents, with 55.3 percent of respondents showing that they have intentions to move there within a year from visa liberalisation (76.6 percent), and within the next five years (10.6 percent), while another 12.8 percent still do not have an answer.

As for the labour market, 95.7 per cent of respondents believe visa liberalisation will affect Kosovo's workforce, and 74.5 per cent of other respondents claim visa liberalisation is positive for Kosovars.

Asked whether they would be willing to leave their current job if a better EU employment opportunity was offered, 78.7 percent said they would, while 21.3 percent said they would refuse.

However, the main reason why Kosovars would move to the EU lies in one thing; the best quality of life, with 78.7 percent of respondents confirming it. Higher salaries (68.1 percent), more job opportunities (55.3 percent), and rule of law (51.1 percent) are the main reasons for Kosovars to leave their EU country.
