Aevamo’s reading
The Immigration and Passport Act, 2014 creates the entry obligation: section 11(6) empowers the Minister by Order to require citizens of specified countries to hold a visa, and sections 13(2) and 24 make entry as a bona fide visitor (for not more than six months) the visa-free route that the exemption orders implement. The Act is the instrument that imposes the requirement; the ministry page and orders describe or grant exemptions from it.
The Department of Immigration's own list names each of these European Union countries and the United Kingdom, Serbia and Ireland as not requiring a visa, which is the exemption claimed; Germany is also covered under its machine-readable code D.

How the documents behind this regime are dated
The Act is dated 2014 (assented 2 June 2014, No. 6 of 2014). The Visa Exemption Orders are dated 2015 (SI No. 15, gazetted 30 April 2015) and 2016 (SI No. 30, gazetted 6 October 2016). The EU-ATG agreement is dated 28 May 2009 and EUR-Lex serves a consolidated version dated 01/11/2021. The immigration.gov.ag pages carry a 2015-2016 footer and are the Department's live published pages as fetched. The Kosovo-Antigua and Barbuda visa-abolition agreement was signed in Washington, D.C. on 24 July 2019, gazetted in Kosovo as act PRS-208/2019-MARR-ND on 5 November 2019 and, per the Kosovar Ministry of Foreign Affairs, entered into force on 15 November 2019. One held document came from cache rather than live: atg_cip_visa_requirements (cip.gov.ag), bytes from an earlier real fetch of the same URL, retrieved 28 August 2026; no row cites it.
What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
