About Albania

Albania is located in Southeastern Europe on the Balkan Peninsula, bordering the Adriatic and Ionian seas. The official language is Albanian. The country's economy is primarily driven by services, tourism, agriculture, and manufacturing.

The spirits market

Alcohol is legal in Albania and distributed through private retailers without a state monopoly. Registered commercial entities import spirits through National Food Authority and Customs authorizations, subject to excise duties, 20% VAT, and tariffs ranging from 0% for EU and CEFTA goods up to 15% MFN. Domestic production mainly centers on grape raki, brandy, and liqueurs. A booming tourism sector and tariff-free EU access offer expanding opportunities for exporters of premium whisky, gin, vodka, and tequila.
