Using money in Albania

  • The local currency is the Albanian Lek (ALL). EUR is widely accepted on the coast but at unfavorable rates.
  • ATMs are common in cities and tourist towns; expect 3–7 EUR fees per withdrawal.
  • Card payments work in hotels and city restaurants. Carry cash for villages, taxis and small kiosks.
  • Tipping: round up taxis, leave 5–10% in sit-down restaurants.
