Discover visa requirements for your trip
Citizens of Chad must obtain a tourist visa before travelling to Albania. There is no visa-free entry for Chadian passport holders, so the visa must be arranged in advance.
Albania does not exempt Chadian nationals from a visa for tourism. Travellers from Chad should assemble their file in advance, through Albania's official electronic visa system or at the Albanian embassy accredited to Chad. The passport must be valid for at least six months beyond the intended date of entry.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. A Chadian national needs a tourist visa to enter Albania; there is no visa-free access or guaranteed visa on arrival for this nationality. The visa must be obtained before departure. Confirm the precise category (short-stay tourist) on the official source before booking.
How and where to apply
Albania provides an official online e-Visa system, often the most convenient channel for Chadian travellers because Albania has no mission in N'Djamena. Otherwise, the application can be submitted at the Albanian embassy or consulate responsible for Chad, usually located in a neighbouring country. Open an account on e-Albania or the eVisa service, complete the form and upload the required documents.
Documents and fees
Prepare a Chadian passport valid for at least six months, a recent photo, proof of accommodation, an itinerary and evidence of financial means; travel insurance and a return ticket are usually requested. The exact fee is not confirmed here, so refer to the official rate in force when you apply. Make payment only through the official channels on the portal.
Processing and tips
Processing time is not guaranteed on this route, so allow several weeks before departure. A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required depending on your routing, so check this point with the official source. Keep a digital copy of your visa and present it with your supporting papers on arrival in Albania.
Common mistakes
Typical pitfalls are an under-valid passport, bookings that are inconsistent between the form and the supporting documents, and missing insurance or proof of funds. Many travellers wrongly believe an exemption applies, so always check your status on the official source. Finally, avoid unofficial intermediaries when paying the visa fee.
