Visa & Entry

British passport holders enter Albania visa-free for up to 1 year, with a maximum stay of 90 days in any 180-day period. No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure date with at least one blank page.

No supporting documents are required at the border beyond a valid passport, though return tickets and hotel reservations can speed up processing. The 90/180 rule is enforced, and overstays incur fines starting at ALL 10,000 (about $95). For stays over 90 days within 180, you need a residence permit from the local police directorate.

Direct flights from London to Tirana run about 2 hours 50 minutes. The Albanian lek (ALL) is the local currency, trading at roughly 105 ALL per $1. Euros are widely accepted in tourist areas and hotels. No vaccination requirements for entry from the UK. Albania is not in the Schengen Area, so your time here does not count against Schengen 90/180 limits.
