Moving to Albania
What the move actually involves: entry, residence, registration, banking, housing and the things people underestimate.
简明说明
This section is about living in Albania rather than visiting — how to stay legally, what things cost, how healthcare works, and what people find hardest.
These pages are educational. Immigration, tax, property and healthcare rules in Albania change and are applied with local variation. Nothing in this section is legal, tax, immigration, investment or medical advice, and anyone acting on it should take professional advice in Albania and in their own country.
