Albania is increasingly becoming a destination of choice for travelers from Central America, offering a majestic blend of Mediterranean coastline and deep historical roots.

We provide a professional and efficient digital process for the Albania e-Tourist Visa, ensuring that Nicaraguan travelers can manage their entry requirements with complete transparency and expert guidance.

How to Travel from Nicaragua to Albania: Flight Routes
Traveling from Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA) in Managua to Tirana (TIA) involves strategic connections through major international aviation hubs. The most popular and reliable route for Nicaraguan citizens typically involves flying via Madrid (MAD) or Istanbul (IST).
Common carriers include Iberia or Avianca connecting to European gateways like Frankfurt (FRA), Vienna (VIE), or Istanbul (IST) with Turkish Airlines. These routes provide several scheduling options, ensuring a comfortable gateway from Central America into the heart of the Balkan Peninsula.

Currency and Financial Tips: Córdoba to Albanian Lek
While you use the Nicaraguan Córdoba (NIO) at home, the official currency you will use in Albania is the Albanian Lek (ALL). It is important to know that while card payments are common in Tirana's modern establishments, Albania is still very much a cash-oriented society, especially in local markets, traditional cafes, and rural mountain areas.
We strongly suggest carrying Euros or US Dollars for exchange upon your arrival, as they are the most widely recognized foreign currencies in the country. To learn more about secure payment handling and financial tips, please visit our Payment Guidelines page.
