How to Travel from Bangladesh to Albania: Flight Routes
Traveling from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC) in Dhaka to Tirana (TIA) involves connecting through global aviation hubs. The most popular and reliable route for Bangladeshi citizens is typically via Istanbul (IST) with Turkish Airlines, which offers smooth daily transit directly into the heart of the Balkans.
Other excellent options include flying via Dubai (DXB) with Emirates or flydubai, or connecting through Doha (DOH) with Qatar Airways. These routes provide high levels of comfort and multiple scheduling options for your journey from South Asia to the Mediterranean.

Currency and Financial Tips: Taka to Albanian Lek
While you use the Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) at home, you will be using the Albanian Lek (ALL) during your stay. It is important to know that while card payments are common in Tirana's modern establishments and malls, Albania remains a cash-oriented society, especially in local markets, traditional taverns, and rural guesthouses.
We strongly suggest carrying Euros to exchange upon your arrival, as it is the most widely recognized foreign currency. To learn more about secure financial planning and payment methods, please visit our Payment Guidelines page.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

Do Bangladesh citizens need to visit an embassy for the visa?
No, the process for the Albania e-Tourist Visa is 100% online. Since Albania does not have a physical embassy in Bangladesh (the nearest is in Beijing), the e-Visa is the most convenient way to apply. You do not need to submit your original passport by mail; once approved, your visa will be delivered directly to your email.
✧
Can I enter Albania with a valid Schengen or US visa?
Yes, citizens of Bangladesh who hold a valid, multiple-entry Schengen, US, or UK visa (and have used it at least once to enter the issuing country) may be eligible for visa-free entry for up to 90 days. If you do not hold one of these visas, the Albania e-Tourist Visa is a mandatory requirement.
