Need tourist visa for Albania?

Upvote:1

As stated in Timatic, the database used by airlines:

Visa required, except for passengers with a valid multiple entry visa issued by the United Kingdom, if having used the visa to enter the United Kingdom at least once, for a maximum stay of 90 days.

According to this source, if your student visa (the sticker in the passport) is valid and allows for multiple entries, you're good.

Even if it's expired or only single-entry, however, your quoted link states that the UK residence permit (the card) can also be used if valid. However, Timatic does not state this, which is why you'd be denied boarding on a plane to Albania unless the visa if multiple entry and still valid.

This seems to be an error in Timatic, so I'll write to the team and ask them to look into and correct it.
