Visa requirements for Albanian citizens
Visa requirements for Albanian citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other nations placed on citizens of Albania.
As of 2026, holders of Albanian biometric passports had visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 121 countries and territories worldwide, placing the Albanian passport 40th in the world for travel freedom according to the Henley & Partners Passport Index, an authoritative global ranking based on International Air Transport Association (IATA) and diplomatic data.
This 2025 ranking reflects continued expansion of bilateral travel agreements and visa-liberalisation arrangements. Within Europe, Albanian citizens have enjoyed visa-free access to the Schengen Area since 15 December 2010, allowing stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period under the EU-Albania visa liberalisation agreement. Visa-free or visa-on-arrival access also extends to many destinations in the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, though advanced visas remain necessary for certain major destinations such as the United States, Russia, Mexico, Japan and Argentina.
