Albania - Further information

Albania is a Balkan country on the Adriatic and Ionian Seas; the capital is Tirana. Its geographical proximity to Italy makes the Italy-Albania very frequent, also due to the historical connections and family relations between the two countries: there is a large Albanian community in Italy and, at the same time, many Italians travel or work in Albania. Precisely because Albania is extra-EU, it is essential to fill in the data and shipping documents accurately to avoid delays in customs clearance.

Address format (anti-delay)

In Albania, postcodes have 4 digits. It is good practice to indicate:

  • Name and Surname / Company
  • Street and house number (any building details, staircase, interior)
  • Postcode (4 digits) + Location
  • ALBANIA
  • Recipient's telephone + email

Tip to avoid delays: before confirming the shipment, check the postcode/location and address with the official Shqiptare Mail

FAQ - Sending a parcel to Albania

Albania is non-EU: what changes for shipping?

Yes: shipping to Albania means that the goods can pass in customs, with possible controls and time affected by customs clearance. To reduce the risk of detention, it is essential to include consistent descriptions and values and attach the required documentation.

Who pays for duties, VAT and customs clearance on arrival?

As a rule, any import charges (duties/VAT and handling/customs fees) are charged to the addressee based on content and declared value.
Tip: notify the recipient before dispatch so that they can respond quickly to any requests.

Which documents are most important for fast customs clearance?

Documents such as commercial invoice/form and a detailed list of contents (quantity, description, value), the declaration of free export. For many non-EU shipments, export documentation and/or a shipper's document may also be required.

💡 Practical tip: avoid generic terms (“gift”, “clothes”) and write precise descriptions (e.g. “cotton t-shirt”, “sports shoes”, “car parts”).
