Albania Offers Conditional Visa Exemption for Some Specific Visa Holders

The Republic of Albania has announced a conditional visa exemption opportunity for certain foreign nationals. Under this policy, only eligible individuals can get an Albanian visa valid for 180 days with a stay duration of 90 days.

This opportunity is available to people who hold valid multiple-entry Schengen, USA, or UK visas. In this case, Schengen visa holders must have used their visa at least once, or possess a residence permit in one of the Schengen states. 

Similarly, UK or USA visa holders must have a residence permit or be used in the UK or the US. 

This visa exemption also applies to those citizens who can enter and stay in the Schengen countries without a visa.
