About this statute

This preamble says the law is adopted to respect people’s linguistic identity, support communities in preserving it, and regulate language use. This provision says the law aims to secure official-language use in Kosovo institutions and public-service bodies, equal status for Albanian and Serbian, and the right of all communities to preserve their linguistic identity. Kosovo institutions must protect language rights, and municipalities must adopt detailed regulations within 6 months on language-use matters. Çdo person ka të drejtën e lirisë së shprehjes dhe të barazisë para ligjit; diskriminimi në baza gjuhësore ndalohet. Institucionet qendrore duhet të përdorin gjuhët zyrtare në mënyrë të barabartë dhe të sigurojnë komunikim, shërbime, dokumente, përkthim dhe përdorim të gjuhëve zyrtare në punë e takime.
