Not verified yet (not yet covered). We haven't verified the business rules for Albanian passport holders, and we don't publish rules we haven't checked against an official source. A rule that is awaiting verification or not yet covered is not a negative visa decision: it only means we haven't confirmed it on an official source yet. Until then, see diplomatie.gouv.sn.
